This is same as vscode default dark theme with blue color as too dark. I would still prefer default color theme. The dark blue color text is very hard to read.

The font is fira code but looks really good on this theme. What are your settings(bold, font-size) for your setup.

Font Size - 14px
And font weight is normal

Practice JavaScript and create small projects to learn the fundamentals. Btw, for creating a theme, I just had to edit a long json file which I am sure you can do if you have little bit of javascript knowledge.

Not looking so good. It is highly contrasted. W
If we use this in night then it will be harmful for our eyes. But obviously great try 👍
