## What it is
A collection of dircolors theme files that apply the Solarized color scheme to GNU ls output in the terminal. It includes 256-color and ANSI variants optimized for Solarized Dark and Light palettes.

## Use cases
- make ls output use solarized colors
- theme my terminal file listing colors
- dircolors config for solarized dark
- fix ugly default ls colors
- consistent color scheme across terminal tools

## When to choose
- you use GNU ls on Linux with a Solarized terminal theme
- you want exact or approximate Solarized colors for file listings
- you want a drop-in dircolors config with ANSI and 256-color variants

## When to avoid
- you are on macOS without GNU coreutils installed
- you don't use the Solarized palette
- you need themes for editors or GUI apps rather than ls
