Installation

You can install Melange with any (Neo)Vim plugin manager.

Paq:

"savq/melange-nvim";

Packer:

use "savq/melange-nvim"

Additionally, nvim-treesitter can be used to install tree-sitter parsers.

Usage

Enable termguicolors and load the colorscheme.

In your init.lua:

vim.opt.termguicolors = true
vim.cmd.colorscheme 'melange'

Or in your init.vim:

set termguicolors
colorscheme melange

To enable the light variant, set the background (or let your terminal do it for you) before setting the colorscheme.

Design

Melange was designed with one idea in mind: Control flow should use warm colors and data should use cold colors; It was originally developed using Lush.nvim; and it's been inspired by many colorschemes, in particular Ayu and Gruvbox.
