## What it is
Flexoki is an open-source, high-contrast color scheme for prose and code, inspired by analog printing inks and warm paper shades. It provides palette definitions and ports for dozens of editors, terminals, and apps including Neovim, VS Code, Obsidian, iTerm2, and Kitty.

## Use cases
- apply a warm ink-on-paper color scheme to my code editor
- make my terminal easier on the eyes for long reading and writing sessions
- use a consistent color palette across editor, terminal, and notes app
- find a high-contrast light and dark theme for syntax highlighting
- theme my Obsidian vault to match my website

## When to choose
- you want a cohesive, legible palette across many tools and apps
- you prefer warm, paper-like aesthetics over cold blue themes
- you need both light and dark modes calibrated for perceptual balance

## When to avoid
- you need a highly customizable theme engine rather than a fixed palette
- you want vibrant, saturated colors rather than muted ink tones
- your tool has no Flexoki port and you don't want to write one

## Facets
- artifact type: plugin
- maturity: stable
- function: theme
- domain: developer-tools, web-design, text-editors
- platform: cross-platform, editor-plugin, cli
