KiCad Plugin and Content Manager addition

[pointhi]

Dear color theme contributors @poeschlr @esden @DX-MON @craftyjon @wykys

I was asked to add those color schemes into the Plugin and Content Manager repository. Thus I would like to ask if you are OK with adding you as author (please give me a name, and as contact info I will simply add your github user if you like). As license, I set this repo to CC0-1.0, but I can set a different license on your theme if you like.

Either you create a PR with the given metadata.json file, or I will create one if you are ok with it. The file looks like this and is added to the color-scheme-directory. The directory further has to include the color-scheme in json format which I can then bundle into a package.

The two themes I added to this repo (kicad-classic and kicad-default) should not be included in the PCM as they are built-in to KiCad.

I am happy for the Eagle-style theme to be included. Please use ***@***.*** as contact info, and Rachel Mant as the name. Rachel.

I am also pleased with this initiative. Please enter a name Jan Vykydal.

[esden]

The nord theme that I submitted is actually desigend by @jordiorlando I only did some conversion to add it here. I think the approval and credit should go to him. If it was up to me I would definitely be fine with getting the theme added. :)

[pointhi]

This is a sneak peek how it looks right now:

[dragonmux]

That's looking awesome! We have a couple of layer fixes for 8-layer stuff in the Eagle inspired theme due which we'll try and land before this lands, but that should be all that needs doing for that theme. Rachel.

[pointhi]

@DX-MON maybe we can add a light and a dark Eagle theme. I suppose only the background color is different?

[pointhi]

As KiCad introduced various new color tags over time, it would be nice if all themes we include in the package manager have all colors assigned. I did this for solarized in this commit: c6a545a

[jordiorlando]

This looks great! And thanks for the credit @esden 😄

[Shackmeister]

I have written a message to the person who provided the monokai theme on the forum.
Would be great to get in the content manager :)

[ANWatson]

Personally, I'd be happy for the monokai theme to be available in a theme selector. My name's Ash Watson. I am not the creator of the colour set itself though, I just posted a modified config file text back in 2018. So really it shouldn't be up to me.
The original creator of monokai itself ought to be asked and credited. I have reached out to them.
For now, please hold off on including monokai until they give their blessing.

[poeschlr]

Sorry for the late response. I kind of missed this (was somehow lost in my inbox)

I am ok with anyone using my work however they want.

[jordiorlando]

@pointhi is there a way for you to change @0xdec to @jordiorlando in the plug-in manager? Or perhaps I should open an issue in GitLab?

[Chrismettal]

Thanks for getting most themes into the addon manager already!

Any reason for Behave-dark to be missing from the manager though?
