This repository contains three Emacs themes (ample, ample-flat, ample-light) that define comprehensive color schemes for the Emacs text editor. Each theme is implemented as a standalone Emacs Lisp file using Emacs' custom-theme system. The themes provide carefully curated color palettes and customize hundreds of faces across core Emacs interfaces and popular packages like Helm, Magit, js2, web-mode, and others to create visually cohesive and readable editing environments. The themes support both GUI and 256-color terminal modes.
