When I became aware of Sublime, I noticed the benefits of dark themes to your workspace. But since Sublime doesn't have support for Grails at the moment, I search for ways to theme STS or SpringSource Tool Suite and I reached to this article. I tried the plugin and it worked well. Unfortunately, only the Editor area was change by the plugin.
The question is how I change the Color and Fonts of the whole STS or Eclipse?
1. Changing theme of Spring Tool Suite without downloading any plugin. (For using Darkest Dark Theme see option 2)
First, go to
Window > Preferences
Then in Preferences dialog go to
General > Appearance
after that select *Dark in the dropdown for Theme, after that click on Apply, then on Apply and Close
Then restart STS once so your STS will look like this
2. Changing theme of Spring Tool Suite by downloading Darkest Dark plugin.
First go to
Help > Eclipse Marketplace...
Then in Eclipse Marketplace dialog search for Darkest Dark and then click on Go.
After that from the search results install the plugin named Darkest Dark Theme with DevStyle
After that with default options selected click on Confirm
Then accept the license and click on Finish
Then let the software install
After installation completes click on Restart in the pop up
Then in the welcome screen click on Next
After that select Darkest Dark Theme and click on Next
Then let the STS launch with Darkest Dark Theme
Then click on Continue in the Tweak the Workbench dialog
Then your STS will look like this
