Gruvbox Material is a modified version of the Gruvbox color scheme for Vim with softer contrast and three palettes (material, mix, original). It supports dark and light variants with hard, medium, and soft background options, plus airline/lightline themes.

Use cases

  • make vim easier on the eyes with softer contrast
  • install a gruvbox color scheme for vim
  • get matching airline and lightline themes
  • switch between dark and light editor themes
  • customize background contrast in vim colorscheme

When to choose

  • you use Vim or Neovim and want a refined Gruvbox palette
  • you find the original Gruvbox contrast too harsh
  • you want coordinated status line themes

When to avoid

  • you need a colorscheme for editors other than Vim/Neovim
  • you want the exact original Gruvbox look
