        end,
    },

```

## Options

```lua
    require("witch").setup {
        theme = {
            -- if you disable the theme, no default highlight styles will be set by default
            -- you must to add a customs module or extras module to set the highlight styles
            enabled = true,

-- default style of the theme
            -- "dark", "light"
            style = "dark",

-- more module that you want it should be loaded
            extras = {
                -- bracket = true,
                -- dashboard = true,
                -- diffview = true,
                -- explorer = true,
                -- indentline = true,

-- you can disable startup module by setting enabled to false
                -- then you can add the startup module by yourself like extras module like above
                -- ["startup.<module_name>"] = true,
            },

-- custome your highlight module
            -- see: witch.theme.example
            customs = {
                -- require("witch.theme.example"),
            },

-- This function is called when witch starts highlighting.
            -- It provides a unique opportunity to modify the default highlight groups.
            -- If you wish to customize the default highlight groups, you can do so here.
            -- This function is invoked after loading all colors and highlight options
            -- but before applying the highlights, allowing users to adjust undesired highlights.
            -- you can do something like this
            --
            -- on_highlight = function(style, colors, highlight)
            -- 	if style == "dark" then
            -- 		-- change the default background of witch
            -- 		colors.bg = "#000000"

-- 		-- change the Normal highlight group of witch
            -- 		highlight.Normal = { fg = "#ffffff", bg = "#000000" }
            -- 	elseif style == "light" then
            -- 		-- change the default background of witch
            -- 		colors.bg = "#ffffff"

-- 		-- change the Normal highlight group of witch
            -- 		highlight.Normal = { fg = "#000000", bg = "#ffffff" }
            -- 	end
            -- end,

--- @param style string : the current style of the theme
            --- @param colors table : the current colors of the theme
            --- @param highlight table : the current highlights of the theme

            -- with specific filetypes or buftypes listed in the excluded table.
            --
            -- The idea of this option is when change to a window like NvimTree, Telescope, ...
            -- where these windows are considered auxiliary tools.
            -- the last active window retains its status as the main window
            -- and should not be dimmed upon switching.
            excluded = {
                filetypes = {
                    NvimTree = true,

## Commands

| Command               | Description                                                           |
| --------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `:Witch <theme_name>` | Switch to the specified theme, fallback to default theme if not found |

## Events

| Event                | Description                                                                                                                                                   |
| -------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `WitchHighlightDone` | This event is fired when witch has finished highlighting of a module. You can use this to reload highlight of some plugin such as NvimTree after change theme |

Example:

```lua
    vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd({ "User" }, {
        pattern = "WitchHighlightDone",
        callback = function(event)
            -- event.data is the name of the module that witch has finished highlighting
            if event.data == "nvimtree" then
                print("WitchHighlightDone nvimtree")
            end
        end,
    })
```

## Custom Highlight

With witch, you can easily add your custom highlight to the theme
by creating a new module in some where in your config and add it to the `customs` option.

The module should has the structure like this: [example](./lua/witch/theme/example.lua)

```lua
    require("witch").setup {
        theme = {
            customs = {
                -- your module
                require("witch.theme.example"),
                -- ...
            },
        },
    }
```

🤗 We also provide some default highlight module that you can use to extend the theme
see [here](./lua/witch/theme/module).
So to enable these module, you can add the name of module to the `extras` option

```lua
    require("witch").setup {
        theme = {
            extras = {
                bracket = true,
                dashboard = true,
                diffview = true,
                explorer = true,
                indentline = true,
            },
        },
    }
```

## Custom Theme

With witch, you can also add your custom theme to the theme.

😢 Unfortunately, it's not really flexible you just can change the colors of the
table colors rigidly.

You can see the colors format in [here](./lua/witch/colors/example.lua)

So, if you have any idea to make it more flexible, please let me know.

```lua
    require("witch").setup {
        more_themes = {
            -- the key is the name of the theme must be in PascalCase
            Custom1 = {
                bg = "#161f31", -- the background color
                bg_dark = "#0d1829", -- the background color of floating windows
                bg_line = "#0d1829", -- the background color of the statusline and tabline
                bg_visual = "#253557", -- the background color of the visual selection
                bg_highlight = "#1f2b49", -- the background color of the line the cursor is on
                bg_gutter = "#1b305d", -- the background color of fold
                bg_sidebar = "#1b305d", -- the background color of the sidebar, fallback to bf_dark if not defined

## Contributing

Because I follow minimalism, I just support the basic features that I use.

If you need more features, please feel free to open an issue or pull request
with and image or a video to show your color scheme.

Hope you enjoy it!

I look forward to more highlight styles from you.
