Description   unfold

This module gives Doom its signature look: powered by the doom-one theme (loosely inspired by Atom's One Dark theme) and doom-package:solaire-mode. Includes:

• A custom folded-region indicator for doom-package:hideshow.
• File-visiting buffers are slightly brighter (thanks to doom-package:solaire-mode).

Changing theme

Although this module uses the doom-one theme by default, doom-themes offers a number of alternatives:

• doom-one: doom-themes' flagship theme, inspired by Atom's One Dark themes
• doom-vibrant: a more vibrant version of doom-one
• doom-molokai: based on Textmate's monokai
• doom-nova: adapted from Nova
• doom-one-light: light version of doom-one
• doom-peacock: based on Peacock from daylerees' themes
• doom-tomorrow-night: by Chris Kempson
• And many more…

This can be changed by changing the doom-theme variable, e.g.

;; in $DOOMDIR/config.el
(setq doom-theme 'doom-molokai)

Changing fonts

core/core-ui.el has four relevant variables:

doom-font

the default font to use in Doom Emacs.

doom-big-font

the font to use when doom-big-font-mode is enabled.

doom-variable-pitch-font

the font to use when variable-pitch-mode is active (or where the variable-pitch face is used).

doom-symbol-font

the font used to display unicode symbols. This is ignored if the doom-module::ui unicode module is enabled.

(setq doom-font (font-spec :family "Fira Mono" :size 12)
      doom-variable-pitch-font (font-spec :family "Fira Sans")
      doom-symbol-font (font-spec :family "JuliaMono")
      doom-big-font (font-spec :family "Fira Mono" :size 19))

Troubleshooting

Strange font symbols

If you're seeing strange unicode symbols, this is likely because you don't have nerd-icons's font icon installed. You can install them with M-x nerd-icons-install-fonts.

Ugly background colors in tty Emacs for daemon users

doom-package:solaire-mode is an aesthetic plugin that makes non-file-visiting buffers darker than the rest of the Emacs' frame (to visually differentiate temporary windows or sidebars from editing windows). This looks great in GUI Emacs, but can look questionable in the terminal.

It disables itself if you start tty Emacs with $ emacs -nw, but if you create a tty frame from a daemon (which solaire-mode cannot anticipate), you'll get an ugly background instead.

If you only use Emacs in the terminal, your best bet is to disable the solaire-mode package:

;; in $DOOMDIR/packages.el
(package! solaire-mode :disable t)
