VIM theme for the beach

TLDR: Use shirotelin color theme for VIM if you work under the sun.

Working on the beach. Checked!

I borrowed a beach chair from the hotel I’m staying at, and here I am, wearing the big hat I bought from Florence and sun glasses, sitting under the bright sun with occasional shadows thanks to the clouds, the waves keep rolling in front of me while I try to read and type into my editor in the terminal.

For years I’ve been using Zenburn as the color theme for VIM, and guess what, it is impossible to read under the sun, even after turning my laptop brightness to the maximum! So I started looking for something else.

I tried the popular Solarized light, its yellow is too bright on my screen. I started browsing the light themes on https://vimcolors.com, and found shirotelin, it is perfect! I don’t feel blind anymore!
