- Rounded corners on all panels, notifications, command palette, and sidebars
- Pill-shaped activity bar with glass selection indicators
- Breadcrumb bar and status bar that dim when not hovered
- Tab close buttons that fade in on hover
- Smooth transitions on sidebar selections, scrollbars, and status bar
- Pill-shaped scrollbar thumbs
- Color-matched icon glow effect (works best with Seti Folder icon theme)
- Warm syntax highlighting with comprehensive language support (JS/TS, Python, Go, Rust, HTML/CSS, JSON, YAML, Markdown)
- IBM Plex Mono in the editor, FiraCode Nerd Font Mono in the terminal
This theme has two parts: a color theme and CSS customizations that create the floating glass panel look.
