Specifically supports Xcode 8, 9, and 10, ensuring it works with recent development environments, per the Background note in the README.
Despite the creator's personal migration to Cognac, they commit to maintaining this theme for the Xcode community, as stated in the Note section.
Explicitly incompatible with Xcode 5, 6, and 7 due to changes in the theme editor, and no mention of support for versions beyond 10, which could alienate users on older or newer systems.
The theme is a static Solarized Dark implementation; there are no built-in tools to adjust colors or contrast, requiring manual file edits for any modifications.
With the creator favoring their new Cognac theme, updates for Solarized Dark might be less frequent or prioritized lower, risking compatibility with future Xcode releases.
