Gruvbox High Contrast

Gruvbox High Contrast is a modified version of Gruvbox (retro groove color scheme for Vim), the contrast is high up in order to improve code readability.

There are 2 color modes available (as in original Gruvbox theme):

• light - white background.
• dark - black background.

There are 3 palettes for each color mode (as in original Gruvbox theme):

• hard - high color intensity background (#000000/#ffffff).
• medium - medium color intensity background (#070707/#f7f7f7).
• soft - soft color intensity background (#0f0f0f/#efefef).
