Export Terminal Theme
Your terminal can match your editor exactly. Syntalume generates ports of every theme for six terminal apps from the same color source as the VS Code themes, and one command exports them from inside VS Code.
Export#
Run:
Syntalume: Export Terminal Theme- If a Syntalume theme is active, it is exported; otherwise you pick one.
- Pick the terminal app: iTerm2, Windows Terminal, Alacritty, WezTerm, Ghostty, or Warp.
- Choose where to save the file. The confirmation message includes the install hint for the app you picked.
The command is also available on the Setup Dashboard.
Installing the exported file#
| App | Install |
|---|---|
| iTerm2 | Preferences → Profiles → Colors → Color Presets → Import |
| Windows Terminal | Add the JSON object to schemes in settings.json |
| Alacritty | Import the TOML file via general.import in alacritty.toml |
| WezTerm | Copy into ~/.config/wezterm/colors/ and set color_scheme |
| Ghostty | Copy into ~/.config/ghostty/themes/ and set theme |
| Warp | Copy the YAML into ~/.warp/themes/ |
What is in a port#
Each port carries the theme's terminal background, foreground, cursor, selection, and all sixteen ANSI colors — the exact terminal.* values you see in VS Code's integrated terminal, so colors match across both.
Pre-generated ports for every theme also live in the ports/ folder of the public support hub, along with terminal-colors.sh — a small script that prints your terminal theme's 16-color palette and a Syntalume wordmark drawn in those colors, so you can see the port the moment it is installed:
