KiCad Gruvbox Light Theme

EESCHEMA	PCBNEW

Gruvbox Light for KiCAD - THE FUTURE IS HERE

Based on the dark Gruvbox theme from AlexanderBrevig.

Based on the original color scheme Gruvbox.

This is my KiCAD daily-driver theme.

Install theme

Replace the version 6.0 to the actually version you are using!

• Linux ~/.config/kicad/colors or ~/.config/kicad/6.0/colors
• Windows: %APPDATA%\kicad\6.0\colors
• OSX: ~/Library/Preferences/kicad/colors or ~/Library/Preferences/kicad/6.0/colors

You can simply cd your way there and get Gruvbox.json in there somehow.

cd ~/.config/kicad/6.0/colors
curl 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hza2002/kicad-gruvbox-light-theme/refs/heads/main/colors/Gruvbox%20Light.json' > 'Gruvbox Light.json'

Contribute

I have not really landed on any convention as for when to use which color. Feel free to make suggestions or PR, I will probably merge them if you explain the thought behind your change.
