I have a custom theme that's pretty minimal, because I find lots of colors distracting.

Colors are vaguely based it on pen on paper:

       white: background
   dark blue: foreground
  light gray: brackets and commas and stuff
         red: literals (strings, numbers, true/false)
       black: comments
This means comments and literals stand out, which are usually the things I don't want to miss when I'm reading through code.

similar theme here, vim :TOhtml output: https://aurora.nox.tf/tmp/zebra_rib.c.html (Tab display and col-80-mark is missing in that tho)

(but yes I make my comments gray)
