Nord is an arctic, north-bluish color palette of sixteen carefully selected dimmed pastel colors designed for code syntax highlighting and UI design. It ships as an npm/SCSS/Less module plus native color swatch formats and ports for many applications such as Vim, tmux, VS Code, and iTerm2.
Use cases
- apply a consistent color theme across my editor and terminal
- use a north-bluish color palette in my SCSS project
- theme vim and tmux with matching colors
- get color swatches for GIMP or Photoshop
- find a calm dark theme for code syntax highlighting
When to choose
- you want one unified, well-tested color palette across editors, terminals, and design tools
- you build web projects and want colors importable via npm, Sass, or Less
- you prefer a minimal, flat, eye-comfortable dark theme with documented design guidelines
When to avoid
- you need a light-mode-first palette or highly saturated vibrant colors
- you want a full UI component library rather than just colors
- you need a theme with frequent updates or active new feature development
