# Introduction

`nvim-highlite` is a colorscheme template repository for Neovim 0.5+.

This project aims to make the following

* You can define/modify variables once instead of messing around with potentially botched substitutions.
* You can distribute a lean colorscheme, free from unnecessary logic.
* You can distribute the source alongside the colorscheme, making it easy for your users to experiment and adapt *your* colorscheme to *their* needs.
* You can focus on the design of your colorscheme rather than its implementation.
* You can start working on new colorscheme ideas very easily.

# Prerequisites
