💡 Syntax Highlighting

Replaces glaring, standard colors with a curated palette that looks stunning on dark themes.

How It Works

The highlighter uses VS Code's createTextEditorDecorationType API to apply custom decorations. This means it works on top of any theme — including Dark+, Monokai, and One Dark Pro.

[!NOTE] Automatic Activation

Syntax highlighting activates automatically when you open any .feature or .gherkin file. No configuration needed.
