Solarized Osaka is a Neovim colorscheme plugin that implements a Solarized-inspired dark and light theme with extended colors for modern Neovim features and plugin support. The codebase is a monolithic Lua plugin with entry points in `colors/solarized-osaka.lua` and `lua/solarized-osaka/init.lua`. It works by defining a color palette via HSL/HPLUV color space conversions, then generating Neovim highlight groups and optionally producing theme files for external applications (terminals, tmux, fish, etc.) via a template system. The architecture is clean: a config module merges user options, a colors module computes the palette, groups modules define highlight groups per plugin, and a theme module applies them. The plugin has no runtime dependencies beyond Neovim 0.7.2+. Notably, the repository includes standalone implementations of HSL and HSLuv color space conversions (hsl.lua, hsluv.lua) and a utility function for perceptually brightening colors (util.brighten). These components are reusable in other Lua projects. The extras generation system is also well-structured, though tightly coupled to the theme.
Sonokai is a high-contrast Vim/Neovim colorscheme based on Monokai Pro, offering multiple variants (default, atlantis, andromeda, shusia, maia, espresso). It provides extensive customization options, support for tree-sitter, semantic highlighting, and optimizations for dozens of plugins. The repository includes a sophisticated code generation system that extracts syntax highlights from its own source and places them in after/syntax directories for on-demand loading, improving startup performance. It also comes with themes for popular statusline plugins (airline, lightline, lualine). The code is well-structured Vimscript with clear separation of concerns.
