Developed and released the Veda Pro Theme extension for the zed-industries/extensions repository, focusing on enhancing readability and consistency for dark editor surfaces. The work centered on UI/UX design and theme development, introducing a violet-indigo background and a 16-color ANSI palette inspired by One Dark Pro. Addressed usability issues by refining LSP diagnostic hover popovers and improving Git status color contrast, reducing cognitive load for developers. Employed TOML for configuration and adhered to semantic versioning and schema requirements. Validated the extension through local installation and testing, ensuring that daily workflows in Zed benefit from clearer diagnostics and more accessible status visuals.
