Semantic highlighting

Moonlight does not enable semantic highlighting by default, but it can be enabled in settings:

"editor.semanticHighlighting.enabled": true

How do I enable the glow seen in the screenshot?

Read instructions here.

moonlight.css stylesheet:

.mtk11 {
  color: #91bbff;
  text-shadow: 0 0 10px #2f36ff, 0 0 22px #9d91ff, 0 0 2px black;
}

.mtk12 {
  color: #67d2ff;
  text-shadow: 0 0 15px #12baff, 0 0 2px black;
}

⚠️ The mtk token numbers (11 and 12 above – which represent the two function colors) can change when the theme or VS Code version is updated, causing incorrect colors. When new releases arrive, make sure to visit the README for the updated stylesheet or make an issue if they change due to VS Code – I will update them accordingly.
