This template's _defaults_ focus on:
2020-07-02 17:31:58 +00:00
1. Compatability with [semantic highlighting ](https://medium.com/@evnbr/coding-in-color-3a6db2743a1e ).
* I was using colorschemes that often did not provide enough highlight groups to provide distinction between tokens.
2. Visibility in any range of blue-light.

* I use `redshift` often, and many colorschemes did not allow for me to see when I had lower color temperatures.

This template's _design_ focuses on:
1. Ease of use and rapid development.
* New features may simply be integrated with current configurations, rather than rewritten over them.
* Merging with the upstream repository is simplified by GitHub, allowing you to select what new defaults to add.
* It provides a large supply of defaults for plugins and programming languages.
* Define a smaller set of "categorical" highlights (see Neovim's `group-name` help page) and many more will `link` automatically.
2. Inversion of Control
* Changes made to the highlighting algorithm won't affect how you write your colorscheme.
* New highlight group attributes which are unaccounted for in older versions will simply be ignored without errors due to Lua's `table` s.
