User interface themes

The interface theme defines the appearance of windows, dialogs, and controls. By default, WebStorm uses the Darcula theme, unless you changed it during the first run.

Change the UI theme

In the Settings/Preferences dialog Ctrl+Alt+S, select Appearance & Behavior | Appearance.
Select the UI theme from the Theme list:
- Darcula: Default dark theme
- Light: More traditional light theme
- High contrast: Theme designed for users with color vision deficiency

You can also install a custom theme from the JetBrains Plugin Repository as described in Managing plugins.
