Change the IDE color theme

“

- [Instructor] What happened to my IDE? How did it get this dark look? I'm using the dark Visual studio theme to reconfigure the general look of the Visual Studio application. You can change yours, too. Go to the environment general section and pick a color theme. You got this choice when you first started Visual Studio, so you might've already picked a different theme from the default. Microsoft ships this product with four themes. This is the default. This is a lighter version of the default. Here's an extra contrast version of the default. Of course, I'm in the dark version right now. So let me switch back to the blue version, the default version and click okay. It's that simple to switch out your theme. In the next video, I'll look at how to change the individual fonts so I can customize my comments, customize the colors of keywords and many other items in my code editor.
