In case anyone's wondering, this website's syntax highlighting color scheme is called "gruvbox", which I quite like but took an embarrassingly long time to track down

Any idea what the website's built with? I really like the design/UI tbh

The HTML generator meta tag (f11 to open dev tools) says it's Astro: https://astro.build/

Looks cool, reminds of a VHS box. Also nails the look of 70s decor that was everywhere when I was growing up in the 80s/90s.

vscode, vim, neovim, emacs, sublime...I'm sure I'm missing some

this the theme I use on my i3 setup - it has some nice vibe from when terminal would be weirdly orange

I have been seeing this theme trending a lot lately, it’s so good

Recently I am using a variation that looks like gruvbox a bit but has some tweaks to it https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=hrose.am...

Gruvbox is oooollld, at least from my recollection. Been around at least since I started using vim maybe 15 years ago.

A seldom appreciated benefit of gruvbox: like vim binds, it's available everywhere. If it has a theming system, somebody ported gruvbox to it.
