Re: [epp-dev] Dark Theme Versions of EPP Packages

What Fred said. The "newer IDE" you cite, VSCode, doesn't offer the choice at download time. But the option to change it is in the top level Settings menu, easier to find. Also the Genuitec Darkest Dark theme does what Fred suggests.

Also, I'm not sure our dark theme support is ready for prime time yet. I know one set of plug-ins that I'm intimately familiar that still end up with dark text on dark background. Mind you, it works in Darkest Dark theme...

I don't think offering different packages is such a good idea. However, Eclipse IDE could, like Intellij Idea, offer welcome pages to choose from light vs dark theme (among other things, like enabled plugins)

With newer IDEs supplying dark theme by default (e.g. VSCode), should we consider having two versions of EPP packages (dark-themed, light-themed) from the download page so that users don't have to search for the preference and they can start in their preferred mode from the get-go.  It would also advertise that Eclipse works in dark-theme.

It would nice to do this simply by adding an options file that indicates the default and thus could be done post-build and could be automated for all packages.

What do people think?
