Visual adjustment extensions
VS Code extensions are divided into various categories. Themes is one of the categories that is commonly used by many developers to adjust the appearance and color of VS Code. This encourages all kinds of developers to choose the theme that suits them.
There are many themes that you can search for from the Extensions bar in VS Code; however, we will be discussing the following three themes in this section:
- Shades of Purple
- Linux Themes for VS Code
- C/C++ Themes
Shades of Purple
Shades of Purple is one of the most popular theme extensions that has more than 725K downloads. You can download it by searching for it in the Extensions bar and clicking Install.
You can set the theme by hitting the Set Color Theme option, as shown in the following screenshot:

Linux Themes for VS Code
Linux Themes for VS Code has a set of themes that provide a rich experience of GTK (gnome-tweak-tool) themes. It has more than 189K downloads. You can download it from the Extensions bar.
After installing it, you can use the Set Color Theme option to set the theme in your VS Code editor.
C/C++ Themes
VS Code supports a variety of platforms and languages. No matter what language or technology we use, VS Code can easily be used to write applications with a similar or even improved development experience compared to any other IDE or editor.
The C/C++ Themes extension is developed by Microsoft and provides a similar experience to what a developer gets when working on C++ editors. You can install it from the Extensions bar like the others.
Once it is installed, you can create a new C++ file and get a similar experience to that of a C++ editor:

With visual adjustment extensions, any developer of any platform can work with VS Code to develop applications and make the visual adjustments to match the overall look of VS Code as required.
