in plain english

Spacegray is a visual theme for Sublime Text, a popular code editor. The theme changes how the editor's interface looks, including the sidebar, tabs, and overall color palette, with a focus on a clean, minimal appearance. It does not add new features to the editor, it only changes how things look. The theme comes in several color variations. The default Spacegray uses a dark blue-gray palette. Spacegray Light offers a lighter alternative. Spacegray Eighties uses warmer, muted tones reminiscent of 1980s computer interfaces. There are also Mocha and Oceanic dark variations. Each variation pairs with a matching color scheme that controls how code text is highlighted inside the editor. Installing it is straightforward. The recommended method is through Sublime Package Control, which is a package manager built into Sublime Text. You search for "Theme - Spacegray" and install it with one click. A manual installation option is also available by downloading a zip file and placing the folder in the right directory. Once installed, you activate the theme through the editor's Command Palette, which is a search bar for editor commands. You can also activate it by editing a settings file directly, where you set a line specifying which theme and color scheme to use. The theme has several optional customizations. You can adjust tab height, sidebar row spacing, whether file type icons appear in the sidebar, and whether version control status colors labels in the file tree. Font size and font face can also be overridden. All customizations go through the same settings files the editor already uses, so there is nothing outside the normal Sublime Text workflow to learn.
