"GitHub Tomorrow" is a preview-pane theme that combines the basic formatting of the GitHub preview-pane theme with the colors of the Tomorrow edit-pane theme.
Problem
There is currently no dark-mode preview-pane theme that looks nice with the Tomorrow+ edit-pane theme.
Solution
Create a new preview theme that:
Uses GitHub formatting structure
Uses Tomorrow color scheme
Has a slightly lighter preview-pane background than the edit-pane to provide contrast
Works well with Tomorrow-themed inline code blocks
Benefits
Better dark mode experience for users
Consistent color scheme between editor and preview panes
Enhanced readability in low-light conditions
Popular color scheme (Tomorrow/Tomorrow Night)
Implementation Notes
Add new CSS theme file for preview pane
Theme selector in preferences
Test with various Markdown elements (code blocks, headers, lists, etc.)
