Overview
What Absolutely Theme: Dark & Light provides, its requirements, and where to start.
On this page
Absolutely is a Claude Code-inspired family of light and dark themes. Its 36 choices include the warm Absolutely pair and adaptations of familiar palettes, with Islands styling and optional font preferences.
Requirements#
IDE compatibility: IntelliJ IDEA 2025.2+. Check the Marketplace list for other editions and their supported versions.
The documented release is 1.3.0. Its Marketplace compatibility starts at IntelliJ Platform build 252.0. Check the Marketplace compatibility list for your IDE edition and version before installing.
Install the theme in a compatible JetBrains IDE. No language compiler or language server is required. Modern Islands variants need the corresponding platform support; inspect the release compatibility and variant notes before choosing one.
