This is a personal clone of https://github.com/dracula/visual-studio-code/
The comments didn't quite have enough contrast for me -- probably due to my protan issue. Otherwise, this is the same as dracula, just with a comment color tweak.

you'll have to uninstall it first since this uses the same name.
after uninstall, exist vscode and rebuild it so vscode sees it as new.
