Transcript

So, I wake up this morning and I see this tweet from JTL. He's made a new jade green theme for Achie and I want to check it out. So, I hop into his uh GitHub repo for it and just check it out. Doesn't that look really neat? I copy the URL here. Um, and then I do my super alt space, jump down to install, jump down to theme, and then I paste in that new theme. And voila, we have the new theme running. Everything is already styled up beautifully. I can hop into Machi, see how it looks in Neo Vim. Close that out. Isn't that cool? That was literally all it took. And if I didn't like it, I could just jump to remove. I could go down to theme and I could remove it again. But you know what? I'm going to keep Osaka Jade for a while.
