👋 Modern Cobalt2

📖 What this is

Modern Cobalt2 is a dark colour theme for VS Code. It takes the signature look of the classic Cobalt2 theme — a flat, deep navy workbench lit by a single golden accent — and pairs it with a softer, Palenight-derived syntax palette for code.

The published extension identifier is kud.modern-cobalt2-vscode and it contributes a single vs-dark theme labelled Modern Cobalt2.

👥 Who it's for

It suits anyone who likes the Cobalt2 navy aesthetic but prefers the calmer, lower-contrast syntax highlighting popularised by Material/Palenight themes — green strings, purple keywords, blue functions and orange numbers — over Cobalt2's brighter original syntax colours.

📦 What it ships

A single variant: Modern Cobalt2 (vs-dark). There are no light or high-contrast variants. The theme JSON lives at themes/cobalt2.json.
