A Darcula theme for JupyterLab, modeled after the classic IntelliJ theme, with dark scrollbar support.
Theme Darcula is a JupyterLab theme that implements the Darcula color scheme from IntelliJ IDEA, providing a dark, visually comfortable interface for Jupyter notebooks. It solves the problem of eye strain during long coding sessions by offering a consistent dark theme, including dark scrollbars, across JupyterLab versions.
Data scientists, researchers, and developers who use JupyterLab for coding and analysis and prefer dark themes for reduced eye strain and a familiar IDE-like environment.
Developers choose Theme Darcula for its faithful replication of the popular IntelliJ Darcula theme, its pioneering dark scrollbar support, and its broad compatibility with multiple JupyterLab versions, ensuring a seamless and comfortable dark mode experience.

It faithfully replicates the classic IntelliJ Darcula theme, providing a consistent and familiar dark coding environment for users accustomed to IntelliJ IDEA, as highlighted in the README's focus on visual consistency.
It was the first JupyterLab theme to include dark scrollbars, a feature later integrated into JupyterLab core, ensuring a fully cohesive dark interface as described in the history section.
Compatible with JupyterLab 2.x, 3.x, and 4.x, as stated in the key features, ensuring long-term usability across different versions without frequent updates.
Available via pip, conda, mamba, and as a JupyterLab extension for older versions, making installation flexible and accessible for various setup preferences.
As a faithful replication of Darcula, it offers limited customization options compared to themes that allow extensive color adjustments or theming frameworks, which might not suit users wanting to tweak the palette.
Some features, like dark scrollbars, are now built into JupyterLab core, making parts of the theme redundant for users on newer versions, as noted in the history section.
To use dark scrollbars, users must manually enable it through JupyterLab settings (Settings -> JupyterLab Theme -> Theme Scrollbars), adding an extra step after installation.
