Today, I’m excited to announce a new release of PharoDawnTheme, this dark warm color theme for the Pharo Smalltalk IDE.

This theme is available for Pharo 9 and 10 and can be found in the following URL: https://github.com/sebastianconcept/pharodawntheme.

To install it either in Pharo 9 or 10 you can evaluate this in a playground:

Metacello new 
	baseline: 'PharoDawnTheme';
	repository: 'github://sebastianconcept/PharoDawnTheme';
	load.

PharoDawnTheme is designed to make the development experience in Pharo more enjoyable and efficient. The theme has been optimized for readability and usability, giving developers a more comfortable and efficient development environment resolving some issues found in other themes.

This Dawn theme incorporates modern aesthetics, making your Pharo code look gentle and inviting and removing exaggerated and improperly distracting highlights.

I believe that Pharo developers deserve an environment that gets out of their way and allows them to focus on the goals and concepts they aim to master with their code. With PharoDawnTheme, I’ve tried to provide a theme that enhances the software development experience as much as a color theme can.

We invite you to try out this theme and see how you feel it.

And if you find any issues don’t hesitate in opening one in GitHub.
