This is my hand-tuned dark color theme for use in the amazing dev tools RubyMine and PHPStorm by JetBrains.

Give it a try and see how to you like it. If it's useful for you please pass on a kind word about it to your friends and teammates.

This programmer font is highly recommended as I've used it daily for years and I know I'm more productive because it exists:
Out of nowhere I've suddenly switched to this font as Adobe dropped it on the world just a few weeks ago and I think it's fantastic:
