Question 1

How do I install NeoSolarized.nvim using lazy.nvim?

Accepted Answer

Add the plugin specification to your lazy.nvim setup with 'lazy = false' and 'priority = 1000', then call 'vim.cmd[[colorscheme NeoSolarized]]' in the config function. The README provides a detailed example to ensure proper loading during startup.

Question 2

NeoSolarized or Tokyonight: which colorscheme has better plugin support?

Accepted Answer

NeoSolarized offers extensive plugin support with themes for many popular plugins, but Tokyonight might have different or broader coverage. Compare the plugin lists in their READMEs to see which aligns better with your workflow, as both are inspired by similar structures.

Question 3

Can NeoSolarized be used with standard Vim?

Accepted Answer

No, NeoSolarized.nvim is specifically designed for Neovim and requires features available in Neovim 0.6.0 or higher. It will not work with standard Vim, so you'll need to use a Neovim-compatible alternative.

Question 4

Why doesn't transparency work when I switch to light mode in NeoSolarized?

Accepted Answer

Transparency is only supported in dark mode as per the configuration. The README explicitly states that transparency cannot be used with light mode, so you need to use dark mode for see-through backgrounds or disable transparency for light themes.

Question 5

How can I customize specific syntax highlight groups in NeoSolarized?

Accepted Answer

Use the 'on_highlights' function in the setup configuration to override highlight groups. For example, you can change the foreground color of 'Include' to red by setting 'highlights.Include.fg = colors.red', allowing fine-tuned adjustments to match your preferences.
