Could you explain how the "3 computer" works? For example, how would it interact with dual-booting Windows+Linux. That aside, I really want to express my gratitude for your decision to consider Purchasing Power Parity. I do well by the standards of my country+age, but turning that salary into USD is incredibly difficult and that's necessary to buy anything more than the bare necessities like housing+food. So in my case, it makes a difference. I plan to purchase soon.

Not a question but I switched to Dracula a few months ago and love it. I don't theme many applications but having neovim, bat, fzf, tig, kitty, starship and tmux all have the same palette makes for a much better experience.

Personally, what has been your biggest challenge with this project ? How did you overcome it, or how do you keep overcoming it ? Thanks for sharing.

Hey there, Love the philosophy behind the theme. How hard do you think it'd be to automate theme previewing & distribution? What would the challenges be? Why is this problem not solved yet? I'm no designer, but in my understanding a theme is a set of colors that's the result of a research on contrasts and aesthetics (I love how pedagogic Ethan is on its Solarized website: https://ethanschoonover.com/solarized https://ethanschoonover.com/solarized ) By theme distribution, I mean making the theme available for a set of platforms and applications, as it is the case for Dracula, to tackle to problem of context-switching as you neatly describe it. Wouldn't it be theorically possible for a tool to generate themes for all the apps / platforms based on a standard theme description? (Imagine the theme-generator descriptor slowly becoming an actual standard adopted by apps & websites...) By theme previewing, I mean generating (svg-based or sth?) previews of what every target app / platform looks like with that theme, to make testing easier for designers. It must be expensive to test so many themes, so previewing would be key for this tool. The accuracy of previews might be somehow tested by the test suite by screenshoting the themes in VMs. Congrats on the nice work!
