plain.nvim

A minimal Neovim colorscheme that intentionally removes syntax highlighting.

plain.nvim is based on the idea that code should be read as text, not colors.

Philosophy

• Minimal visual distraction

Features

• Fully monochrome design
• Optional dim_comments mode
• Selectable fg color variant (default, nerdy, sunny)

    })
