Cobalt Theme for Xcode

| Comments

I am very fond of the TextMate 2 open source editor. I use it to write posts for this blog. I also really like the ‘cobalt’ text formatting theme that is included with TextMate.

I do not like the hideous default themes that ship with Xcode, and neither does this guy. Daniel Barowy kindly supplies a cobalt emulation theme for xcode on his site, but the file format does not work with the latest version of XCode. I converted this theme and tweaked it slightly to darken the appearance console output. The screenshot below shows Xcode adjacent to TextMate.

If you like the look of this, then copy and paste the text from the code box below into the following file.

1

~/Library/Developer/Xcode/UserData/FontAndColorThemes/cobalt.dvtcolortheme

Finally, restart Xcode and select the Cobalt theme under the preferences menu.
