Color Scheme for VS Code

This technical article addresses a limitation in VS Code where extensions cannot directly access the current theme's color data. The author presents a practical JavaScript workaround that parses the theme name from the workspace configuration to infer if it's a dark or light theme, using simple regex pattern matching. The solution is implemented in their own VS Code extensions for dynamic styling.
