One of the great things about the Atom
editor is the customizability. Here are
0:00:05.160,0:00:07.080
my top three themes.
0:00:07.080,0:00:12.630
The first one is actually a UI theme and
it's called Seti UI. It's a dark theme
0:00:12.630,0:00:18.240
that offers filetype icons and a very
nice-looking tab area and sidebar. You
0:00:18.240,0:00:21.840
can choose a different color scheme,
change the font and also tweak a few
0:00:21.840,0:00:23.160
settings.

On number two we have the accompanying
syntax theme for Seti.
0:00:27.269,0:00:32.880
It's dark, looks great for all file types,
and it complements the UI really well.
0:00:32.880,0:00:39.120
You can even enable an option that bases
the syntax color scheme on the UI. The
0:00:39.120,0:00:42.059
third theme is called Inspired GitHub.
0:00:42.059,0:00:48.329
It's a light syntax one based on GitHub's
colors. Enough said. All the examples in
0:00:48.329,0:00:52.289
this video use the Roboto Mono font 14
pixels in size.
