lackluster.nvim's Issues

suggestion: custom colors

Did you read the docs?

• I have read the docs.

What would you like to change?

This is all personal opinion, I will list things in order of what I see as more important. I am also open to contribute and implement the things, although I am afraid I am a Lua beginner.

• Modifying the colors from lackluster.colors directly
• Making the end of file ~ character invisible.
• Changing the "Changed" highlight to lackluster.color.blue or something similar, in the same way "Removed" is orange, and "Added" is green.

Why do you think this will improve lackluster?

I think those are changes that would allow lackluster to be more customizable and versatile, mostly because I think it is a great base grayscale color scheme to work on top of.

Undercurl

Hi. I'm enjoying your theme so much. But i didn't understand if there is possibility to turn on undercurl. Can you please support me with that?

tweaks not working

Hey, really cool color scheme! However, it seems overriding the tweaks does not work at all for me.

NVIM v0.10.0
Windows 11

Add `barbar.nvim`

add support for barbar.nvim

opacity option support

[Suggestion] Make Comments in lackluster-mint blend less with the background color

Loving the theme so far! My only issue is that the comments can blend and are hard to read because they are too close to the background color

Describe the bug

I set up the theme in my neovim colorscheme.lua and I got this error when I restarted neovim:

I have fixed the bug and the theme is working fine now in my machine. I'll push the commit.

Bright telescope picker

Hi,
firstly great theme! I just added this to AstroNvim for everybody to try!
I'm encountering a small problem regarding the telescope picker. It appears to be very bright with the wrong colors for me:

suggestion: open up the API for customisation

Did you read the docs?

• I have read the docs.

What would you like to change?

The API should expose all highlight groups for customisation. Currently, tweak_syntax has very limited options.

Why do you think this will improve lackluster?

Currently, you can change the highlights manually via the lua API which isn't ideal. All big modern themes allow for customisation from within the setup.

Additional context

No response

add `extra/kitty`

add support for kitty terminal (simular to extra/alacritty)

Lualine active and inactive buffer have the same color

Really loving the theme. I tend to use buffers instead of tabs for my lualine tabline but I noticed that there is no contrast between active and inactive

• lackluster config

return {
  "slugbyte/lackluster.nvim",
  lazy = false,
  priority = 1000,
  init = function()
    -- vim.cmd.colorscheme("lackluster")
    vim.cmd.colorscheme("lackluster-hack") -- my favorite
    -- vim.cmd.colorscheme("lackluster-mint")
  end,
}

• lualine config

return {
	"nvim-lualine/lualine.nvim",
	dependencies = { "nvim-tree/nvim-web-devicons" },
	config = function()
		local lualine = require("lualine")
		lualine.setup {
			tabline = {
				lualine_a = { 'buffers' },
				lualine_b = {},
				lualine_c = {},
				lualine_x = {},
				lualine_y = {},
				lualine_z = {}
			},
		}
	end
}

suggestion: add .stylua.toml and end_of_buffer disabled change for transparent background

Did you read the docs?

• I have read the docs.

What would you like to change?

Firstly, thank you for the plugin; I have been really enjoying it. My first suggestion is to add a .stylua.toml to the repo and the second is to change the setting for end_of_buffer being disabled as

-- Set the End-of-Buffer (EOB) character to an empty space for a cleaner appearance
vim.opt.fillchars:append({ eob = ' ' })

Why do you think this will improve lackluster?

When the .stylua.toml file is included in the repository, it ensures that formatting is enforced according to its settings when users fork and make changes, overriding default formatting applied by plugins like conform.nvim.

The second suggestion ensures that when the end of the buffer is disabled, the end of the buffer character is a space, addressing the issue where users with a transparent background can still see the end of the buffer (screenshots in additional context).

Additional context

Default configuration for end of buffer with transparent background:

With changes suggested above:

I have tried setting the fg for the EndOfBuffer highlight to none but results in EndOfBuffer character having a white fg

Add `lightline`

add support for lightline

Light Variant

Is a light variant planed?

Add `noice.nvim`

add support for noice.nvim

Add `extra/exa`

implement an EXA_COLORS env var with lackluster colors

suggestion: Add ability to controll bold/italic font styles

Did you read the docs?

• I have read the docs.

What would you like to change?

Add ability to controll bold/italic font styles.

Why do you think this will improve lackluster?

Configuration will be more flexible and some people could miss this features

Additional context

I tried to do it just for myself but for some reason it's not working for me.

I added something similar to what i saw in other libraries:

                spec.co('Bold', theme.none, theme.none, { bold = true }),
                spec.ln('markdownBold', 'Bold'),
                spec.ln('markdownBoldItalic', 'Bold'),

But this stuff is not working.
If this idea looks good for you and you can help me with understanding what exactly wrong overthere i could help with pr i think

Help Adding Plugin Support

I would love help adding support for more plugins! I left a list of plugins I want to support in the Contributing guide. But if there are different plugins you want to add support for I would also greatly appreciate that!

Thank you so much!
