alt Hacker NewsI'm extremely glad to see something like this. I've tried to use Zed so many times, and this might sound neurotic -- but there are just so many little theming things that make a difference to me.
For example, https://imgur.com/a/ia2GCgg -- top is VSCode, bottom is Zed. Both using Svelte, and using a similar theme.
- Angle brackets are a different color
- Capitalized built-in components are a different color
- Boolean props are a different color
- Brackets are colored differently than text.
The inspector is a game changer, clicking into these specific things in the preview they provide is super helpful.

FWIW, I have had good results asking LLMs converting themes from an app/ide to another.

But those are syntax highlights. What does this have to do with theming?
I'm not a Zed user, but https://zed.dev/docs/reference/all-settings#colorize-bracket... surely you can configure those.
I don't use zed or svelte, but this looks like the zed picture is missing a treesitter parser for svelte. Many editors have basic regex-based highlighting for many languages, and optional, more advanced, highlighting available through extensions. You may also get some semantic highlights provided by a language server if your editor uses the Language Server Protocol as well.
I found one extension from a web search. Did you try this? https://zed.dev/extensions/svelte
