❌ Failed to install theme extension
@lightify97 commented on GitHub (Feb 15, 2026):
From the docs:
Turns out
--install-extensionexpects a path to VSIX not an unpacked extension directory. That's why this step is failing.Solution: Use the
vscetool to pack the extension into a vsix and then attempt the install.@lightify97 commented on GitHub (Feb 15, 2026):
Also I can't find the custom stylesheet anywhere in the repo. Such level of customization is not possible without one.
@olii-dev commented on GitHub (Feb 15, 2026):
Such a shame, was really looking forward to using this
@bwya77 commented on GitHub (Feb 15, 2026):
I made a fix but havent tested - I am able to test later tonight
@Chewieez commented on GitHub (Feb 15, 2026):
The custom css styles are in the settings.json file. You need to copy/paste/merge those into your user settings.json file, and install the extension.
@bwya77 commented on GitHub (Feb 16, 2026):
Fixed and confirmed working in 0.0.2
@0xironclad commented on GitHub (Feb 16, 2026):
@bwya77 Works on MacOS now?
@bwya77 commented on GitHub (Feb 16, 2026):
@0xironclad yes the script on the 0.0.2 branch works
@0xironclad commented on GitHub (Feb 16, 2026):
@bwya77 I tried with the new branch 0.0.2. it just applies the color theme, nothing else. I even deleted the old extension (
rm -rf ~/.vscode/extensions/bwya77.islands-dark-1.0.0) and disable Custom UI (Custom UI Style: Disable) before running the installation script but that would not help.@bwya77 commented on GitHub (Feb 16, 2026):
@0xironclad just for more info, this looks like it loaded the custom UI style via the user preferences.
I think your theme didnt auto set to islands dark, can you confirm?
@0xironclad commented on GitHub (Feb 16, 2026):
@bwya77 Yes it did. Also, just to be sure again, I deleted the islands dark extension, then reverted my settings.json to default. I confirmed that custom UI is disabled. After that, I run the installation script. It shows success on the terminal but like I mentioned before, only the color theme is applied and nothing else. The theme is also auto set to Islands dark, look at the attached image below.

Installer works in v.0.0.2
