Spring Theme for Xcode

Inspired by the vibrant and refreshing essence of the spring season, this light theme brings a sense of renewal to your coding environment with soft greens, floral pinks and warm earth tones. Together they make a bright yet soothing palette, designed to enhance focus and provide a pleasant visual experience during long development sessions.

Getting started on Xcode

1. Download the zip with the Download button. Inside are two theme files: one for Xcode 26 ( .xcworkspacecolortheme ) and one for Xcode 16 and earlier ( .xccolortheme ).
2. Copy both files into ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/UserData/FontAndColorThemes/ ( in Finder, Shift+Cmd+G takes you to the path; create the folder if it is not there ).
3. Xcode 26: open Settings → Appearance, click Choose next to Theme and pick the theme under Custom. Xcode 16 and earlier: Settings → Themes lists it after a restart.
4. The theme paints the source editor, the console and the documentation view; the window keeps the macOS look.
