by crlang44·Jun 10, 2026·2 points·2 comments
AI Analysis
●MidEye CandyCozy
Pretty aurora shader, but VSCode background mods already exist.
Strengths
- •Theme-aware sticky scroll preserves your color scheme readability.
- •Single self-contained file with configurable brightness and speed.
Weaknesses
- •Requires unofficial CSS/JS injection—breaks on VSCode updates.
- •Purely cosmetic with no functional improvement to workflow.
