moonfly is a dark color scheme for Vim and Neovim that has taken inspiration from:
Note, the moonfly color scheme does incrementally change from time to time, primarily in regards to language and plugin theming. However, the core color palette will not change.
A simple companion statusline, vim-moonfly-statuline, is also available.

Use your favoured plugin manager to install bluz71/vim-moonfly-colors then set the colorscheme in your vimrc file.
If using vim-plug do the following:
- Add
Plug 'bluz71/vim-moonfly-colors'to your vimrc - Run
:PlugInstall - Add
colorscheme moonflyto your vimrc, make sure this line appears after the Plug declaration.
The g:moonflyCursorLineNr option specifies whether to highlight the cursor
line, as blue, in the number column if the relativenumber or cursorline
settings are in effect. By default the cursor line will be highlighted as such.
To disable highlighting of the current cursor line in the number column please add the following to your vimrc:
let g:moonflyCursorLineNr = 0
The g:moonflySpellReversed option specifies whether to highlight spelling
errors in bold reversed colors. By default spelling errors will be highlighted
using colored undercurls. However, most (all?) terminals do not appear to
support undercurls let alone colored undercurls, simple underlines are
usually displayed. Note, GUI-based Vim's, such as gVim and Macvim, do
correctly display colored undercurls.
To highlight spelling errors in bold reverse colors please add the following to your vimrc:
let g:moonflySpellReversed = 1
Quite a few modern terminal programs, like iTerm2 and
st, support
24-bit true colors. Modern versions
of Vim and Neovim, on such terminals, support true colors when set termguicolors is enabled.
On terminals that do support true colors, and when termguicolors is set,
the moonfly color scheme will not require any terminal configuration to emit
the correct moonfly colors.
When run under tmux the following setting needs to be added to ~/.tmux.conf:
set -ga terminal-overrides ',xterm-256color:Tc'
If consistency between Vim colors and $SHELL colors is important then I
recommend proceeding with the 256-color configurations listed in the next
section.
Caveat, Terminal.app on macOS and xterm on Unix do not support true colors. Also, true color support, in my experience, seems more stable in Neovim than it does in Vim.
The moonfly Vim color scheme when used with Vim in a 256-color terminal requires the host terminal be setup with the moonfly color palette.
Also note, the host terminal should be configured for 256 colors, this usually means setting the terminal's type to xterm-256color or screen-256color when used with tmux.
iterm2 users on macOS can import this color scheme.
xterm users on Linux can add the following snippet to their ~/.Xresources
file and launch xterm with xterm -name xterm-moonfly. A complete
Xresources file is available
