Convert Visual Studio Code themes into Xed-Editor compatible themes. This tool downloads a VS Code theme from the marketplace, extracts its color palette and token colors, and converts it into a format that Xed-Editor can understand.

Features

  • Download VS Code theme .vsix packages directly from the marketplace.
  • Extract light and dark theme variants from the extension.
  • Convert full theme palettes, terminal colors, and editor token colors.
  • Automatically export converted themes to an installable JSON theme.

Screenshots
