Inspired by the sunset over Mount Roraima and the slow turn from day to night on its tabletop summit, this theme blends deep brown and clay shadows with amber, gold, and salmon accents to create a soothing yet vivid coding environment. Dark, earthy backgrounds ground the editor, while soft violets and mineral yellows add contrast and focus to key syntax elements.
A dark theme from the Codigrate Nature collection, released 2023-10-08. Tags: Sunset, Mystical, Atmospheric.

Getting started on Zed
- Download the zip with the Download button. Inside is one folder with the theme file ( themes/<name>.json ) and a small extension.toml.
- Copy the .json file from the themes folder into ~/.config/zed/themes/ ( the same path on macOS and Linux; on a Mac, Shift+Cmd+G in Finder takes you to the path ). If the folder is not there yet, create it.
- In Zed, open the theme selector with Cmd+K Cmd+T ( Ctrl+K Ctrl+T on Linux ) and pick the theme by name, and the theme is applied.
- Prefer an extension? In Zed open Extensions, click Install Dev Extension and choose the unzipped folder itself; the theme then shows in the selector the same way.

From the blog
- Anatomy of a Dark Theme: Roraima: Anatomy of Roraima, a dark IDE theme: a near black canyon at nightfall, lit by the oranges and golds of a Roraima sunset against cool twilight blues.
