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.
