"textContent": "**Hello Dev.to community**\n\nWe are looking at screens for 8-12 hours a day, but we pick our IDE themes based on \"vibes\". So today is Day 1 of building the Endgame.\n\n**Behind the idea**\nOver many years of continuous development work: coding, writing, and documentation — I have used a vast range of color themes in pursuit of greater comfort and reduced eye strain, from the most popular to highly specialized options. As I began studying the mechanics of visual perception and color processing, while closely observing my own condition during extended work sessions, I found that virtually none of these themes met the criteria for genuinely comfortable visual and physiological perception. Having now accumulated substantial experience, data, and scientific research on the subject, I aim to create a color theme that delivers comfort to the eyes not merely in appearance, but in actual physiological effect.\n\n**Your contribution is helpful and important**\nWhat apps would you like supported first? Drop your suggestions in the comments and I’ll go through them to make a list.\n\nAnd if you love the idea and want to support the development, you can currently do so via Patreon.♥️ (Open Collective and GitHub Sponsors are awaiting approval.)",
