Based on Ashley Trinh's Witchy theme (https://imsca.red/terminal-theme/witchy), but for the new Windows terminal.

To use this color scheme:

  1. Open your settings.json file for Windows Terminal.
  2. Inside the schemes array, copy and paste the gist above. It will end up looking like this:
    "schemes": [
        {
              // any other colour scheme you have
        },
        // copy and paste here
    ],
    
  3. Inside the profiles object, under defaults, set the colorscheme as "Witchy":
    "profiles": {
        "defaults": {
            "colorscheme": "Witchy",
            // any other settings you have
        }
    }
    

Customization

The cursorColor and selectionBackground strings are optional.

If you want to add them, simply add under the "name" field:

"cursorColor": "#AAAAAA",
"selectionBackground": "#AAAAAA",

and replace #AAAAAA with the color string of your choice.

Personally, I like using #C67D6F as the cursorColor and I don't have the selectionBackground set.
