Complete LazyVim example

return {
    {
        "pmouraguedes/neodarcula.nvim",
        lazy = false,
        priority = 1000,
        opts = {
            transparent = true, -- Enable transparent background
            dim = true,         -- Dim inactive windows with a black background
        },
    },
    {
        "LazyVim/LazyVim",
        opts = {
            colorscheme = "neodarcula",
        },
    },
}

Configuration

Default Options

{
    -- removes the background color, making it transparent.
    transparent = false,
    -- sets the background of inactive windows to black
    dim = false,            
}

Requirements

This color scheme uses LSP Semantic tokens and Treesitter information, so it works better when these are enabled.
