Arduino IDE comes with a selection of officially maintained and supported built-in themes:
- Light
- Dark
- High Contrast
Although these three should be sufficient for most users, some users may have other requirements or preferences for the
Arduino IDE UI theming. Fortunately, because it is built on the Eclipse Theia IDE framework, Arduino IDE supports VS
Code theme extensions. This makes a large variety of 3rd party themes available to the user, and even the ability to
create custom themes.
Instructions for installing VS Code theme extensions are here added to the "Advanced Usage" document hosted in the
repository.
Although the Arduino IDE's primary preferences interface provides all required configuration capabilities, advanced
users may wish to fine tune the behavior of the application or temporarily enable additional log output to use for
troubleshooting problems with the IDE.
The IDE provides such settings in a separate interface.
Previously, the existence and access procedure for these settings was undocumented.
Since this is an advanced capability, the documentation is not appropriate for inclusion with the standard user
documentation on arduino.cc. A file here in the Arduino IDE is used instead. This file will serve as a container for all
such user-targeted documentation.
