Activate

Once the color scheme has been defined, it's time to enable it. Find the profiles section and add a colorScheme value to the default profile.

Example:

"profiles": {
    "defaults": {
        "colorScheme" : "Dracula"
    }
}

If the profiles are listed as below:

"profiles": [
    // list of profiles
]

Change it to:

"profiles": {
    "defaults": {
      "colorScheme": "Dracula"
    },
    "list": [
      // list of profiles
    ]
  },
