Tokyo Theme for Ghostty

The Codigrate Tokyo theme for Ghostty. Preview the screenshot and the palette, then get it in a few steps.

Inspired by Tokyo's neon-lit side streets, midnight skylines, and the quiet glow of lantern-lined alleys, this theme blends deep indigo shadows with electric violet highlights to create a sleek, futuristic coding atmosphere. Moody blues keep the editor calm and focused, while luminous purples, soft lilacs, and crisp cyan accents add clarity and energy to key syntax elements.

  2. Move the file into your Ghostty themes folder, ~/.config/ghostty/themes/ ( the same path on macOS and Linux ). If the folder is not there yet, create it in a terminal: mkdir -p ~/.config/ghostty/themes ( on a Mac, Shift+Cmd+G in Finder takes you to the path ).
  3. Open your Ghostty config: in Ghostty press Cmd+, ( Ctrl+, on Linux ), and the config file opens in your editor ( Ghostty creates it if you have none yet ). Add a line: theme = Codigrate London ( the file name ).
