For example, https://imgur.com/a/ia2GCgg -- top is VSCode, bottom is Zed. Both using Svelte, and using a similar theme.
- Angle brackets are a different color
- Capitalized built-in components are a different color
- Boolean props are a different color
- Brackets are colored differently than text.
The inspector is a game changer, clicking into these specific things in the preview they provide is super helpful.
I found one extension from a web search. Did you try this? https://zed.dev/extensions/svelte
But those are syntax highlights. What does this have to do with theming?
I'm not a Zed user, but https://zed.dev/docs/reference/all-settings#colorize-bracket... surely you can configure those.
The theme builder is good and easy to use, and I only needed a few minutes to make my own.
Syntax coloring is almost there, but still lacking (I use C/C++) Small visual adjustment like line height in the UI text is not configurable enough (only two settings)
Scrolling should have a smooth option, nothing prevents it, it should be super easy to add, I find it easier on the eyes when I move around code, especially on a 240Hz monitor.
The editing experience is good, quick launch, no crashes, responsive, not too memory hungry.
Besides, I never work on a laptop.
And this is a lame excuse. Smooth scrolling should also work when using keyboard with and pageup/pagedown, at least as an option and with some tuning preferences.
also wrt scrolling, mice like the logitech mx master actually have what is in my opinion a much better solution where the scrollwheel is not stepped and has scrolling inertia, allowing you to have the same level of precision with scrolling as you do with a touchpad (im not sure if the vertical wheel on it is the same but regardless). Its in my opinion a similar jump in capability for mice as continous triggers were for game controllers. Something that must have been initially quite notable, but slowly became expected behaviour (except on the switch for some reason but whatever i guess)
* There's a standard way to enable high-resolution scroll reporting (pixel-level instead of line-level), but Apple doesn't use it.
* There's a standard approach to multi-touch digitizers/trackpads (documented and I think to some extent created by Microsoft, called PTP) which Apple doesn't support.
* Apple's own Magic Trackpad speaks a proprietary protocol and it appears you can only speak it if you claim to use their USB VID/PID. And I don't think doing that would go over well in a commercial product. (And if you do manage to speak it, it turns out their driver really doesn't do two-finger scrolling well with tiny trackpads anyway. They probably only tested it on the generous dimensions of their hardware.) (Also, it attaches to your entire device, so having an additional interface with a different driver doesn't appear to work either.)
But...you can inject smooth scrolling events via Core Graphics. So you can run a userspace program with accessibility permission that scrolls smoothly. And you can also communicate with USB devices from such a program. There are some existing programs for doing smooth scrolling with standard mice (Mac Mouse Fix is one). I'm writing a userspace driver for PTP to make my keyboard's built-in trackpad work properly.

Applications can choose to ignore synthetic events, IIRC. Probably not an issue for scrolling, but for instance Little Snitch can be configured to ignore synthetic inputs to its security settings.
The defaults all feel very low contrast, gray on gray that makes the experience feel dull and off putting to me, even if the editor itself is great.
I usually look for a dark theme that looks good and then make a custom version with darker the background colors and brighter the foreground colors.
Maybe it's time for to start publishing high contrast dark themes instead of just fixing it for myself.
But I understand your point, no reason for it not to come with a couple good high contrast dark themes.

Last time I checked (about half an year ago) it was hardcoded and unconditional, so disabling it required a patch.
It was added a few months ago if I remember correctly.
