See Base16 repository for more information.

Base16 tmux provides all the base16 theme variants for tmux. Easily swap between over 200 themes.

Once you've cloned this repo locally somewhere, you can source the theme you want to use from within your .tmux.conf file. Add the following line to your .tmux.conf.

source-file $HOME/.tmux/plugins/base16-tmux/colors/base16-default-dark.conf

In most cases, you have to force tmux to assume the terminal supports 256 colours. For this, start tmux as tmux -2.

This color scheme is tested with tmux >= 1.5. tmux 1.1 is reported as not working.

Add plugin to the list of TPM plugins in .tmux.conf:

set -g @plugin 'base16-project/base16-tmux'

Make sure to source your newly updated .tmux.conf. Hit prefix + I to fetch the plugin and source it. The plugin should now be working.

All the base16 themes are provided so you can pick and choose via .tmux.conf option:

• set -g @colors-base16 'default-dark' (the default)

Your base16-tmux theme can be automatically switched alongside your base16-vim and base16-fzf theme if you use base16-shell.

Follow the TPM (Tmux Plugin Manager) installation instructions above and your tmux theme will automatically switch when you change base16-shell themes.
