I ran google/bing search and found only one theme for Eclipse 4 Juno. I would like to know if any theme site or more theme plugins are there.

I would like to customize the look of it, not only plain editor colors ;)

As reported by Lars Vogel in "New Eclipse 4 Chrome Theme – Eclipse 4 get even more beautiful":

Checkout https://github.com/jeeeyul/eclipse-themes/ for a new Chrome theme. The update side is listed below and the main website describes the setup and the available customization.

So it is a first example of complete (ie "not just editor colors") customization of Eclipse (in addition of existing dark themes)

Michael proposes the following instructions:

In Eclipse click on Help / Install New Software then add the following update site to download the theme: https://raw.github.com/jeeeyul/eclipse-themes/master/net.jeeeyul.eclipse.themes.updatesite/ (taken from this page).
Then check Jeeeyul's themes to install it.

After installation you can click on Window / Preferences / General / Appearance, then select Jeeeyul's themes - Chrome Theme and customize it in ... / Chrome Theme register.
Enjoy the awesome theme :)

  • Use [CSS Spy](http://waynebeaton.wordpress.com/2012/02/29/eclipse-4-and-the-css-spy/) to work out the classes/ids to use for styling. It's a pity there's nothing below Tree elements. I'd like to make the selected file in the Project explorer more prominent. – Sam Hasler Nov 06 '12 at 13:48

  • If you are using Linux you must install this theme. Eclipse looks awesome! – Svetoslav Marinov Jun 28 '13 at 19:24
  • Updated: 4 months ago. Will this die as well? I love Eclipse, but it looks damn terrible. Especially if you work in it all day. – Apache Nov 24 '13 at 22:53
  • @Vonc - But how can I set indevidual parts of ( for example - the Moonlight stand alone theme) - as you can see - I want to change the color of the arrow of the tree : I can't see it until i hover it : http://i.stack.imgur.com/rmCyQ.jpg I've checked in the css of the theme. couldn't find the right node ( if any : p.s im new to eclipse but been many years in VS) – Royi Namir Sep 07 '14 at 07:48
  • @RoyiNamir not sure actually: I suspect it should be linked to a css stylesheet, but I haven't found the exact attribute to set. – VonC Sep 07 '14 at 10:15
