I like this screenshot. I think bluegreen and light blue, or maybe a darker blue would be nice for sure.

#00bbf9

00bbf9_add

#14CFFB

14CFFB_add_proper


Though, I think a lighter shade of blue/purple would probably suite the theme more? Granted, it's not blue persay, but still... e,g

#BCC4DB

bcc4db_add_proper

#85C7F2

85c7f2_add_proper

Of the blue-blues though, I think #14CFFB looks better in terms of matching the theme; though#85C7F2 looks nice for a blue-blue alternative too.

I was thinking a darker color maybe?

Although, lot's of things going on at once..(like I wanna edit both the red and orange too)

We haven't written it anywhere explicitly yet, but we updated the current cyan/blue color. My apologies, but #00A3CC is old and we're currently using #59C2FF for the new cyan on dev and I think I like it to make it official on main. (We'd have to update a lot of things I know 😢 ). It might make sense to call that the light blue honestly now that I look at it. @jinh0 added this color lol

I was thinking just adding a turqouise and a darker blue maybe, what do you think? 🤔
Turquoise: #49D1BD
Maybe new darkBlue: #278FCC

Side note, I love how github generates the little color bubbles next to the hex -> #30365F. Absolutely beautiful.

Ah, OK. That's cool, makes sense.

As for the coloring, I like the new cyan/turquoise/"dark blue", but I think the key is making sure their expected usage is clearly defined in the spec. Like, the "main vibe" to me of the theme is a dark purple grounded theme, with purple accents and pops of color; that way in things that aren't like exact syntax that you can define a hard spec for, it keeps the overall "vibe" consistent (like the atom-ui colors, etc).

Kinda curious what you're thinking for the red/orange now too though hehe

Yeah I think that’s it. I tend to associate red with errors so it should be used least sparingly I think. But orange is more permissible just not as much as green/purple.
