Dracula
A common theme that is arising in this series of Tech that ROCKS, is I want to lower my cognitive overhead - I NEED to be able to do more each day, and lowering overheads helps that so much.
One trick I use is to have everything feel the same by ensuring they all have the same theme, and I use the wonderful Dracula Theme which is deeply researched and well-understood of what works in a dark theme and is available for over 300 different apps. It is also free!
But wait, there is more. There is a Pro Version, which is not free but is even better and has a variety of variants (and soon a light mode). The pro version also makes use of an amazing option called Purchasing Parity Power, which means they adjust the price based on where you live (South Africa is 57% off the main price) which makes it affordable, and there is always a black Friday deal (which is when I got mine). The pro version also comes with typefaces!
If you get pro or not; just get it or get some power theme that you can use anywhere to lower that mental cost!
How can I help?

No Recruiters, thanks. I build software from Cape Town, remotely, to keep the doggo happy, often for startups. Go, WebAssembly, JavaScript and other useful things. Specialises in lame jokes. Be lekker or be gone. ??
9 个月Interesting - I can see why you'd go this route. I'm so old school, I feel "vi" has the perfect theme ??
