# Switch themes

There are a lot of themes to choose from. These are some of the more popular light and dark variants. The 3 in the last column are just for fun and making people laugh in presentations. All of these themes are included in the VS Code Can Do That extension pack.

| Light Themes    | Dark Themes | Fun           |
| --------------- | ----------- | ------------- |
| Hop Light       | Night Owl   | Slack         |
| Night Owl Light | Cobalt2     | Hot Dog Stand |
| Min             | Noctis      | win95         |
| Noctis          | Dracula     |               |

You switch themes by opening the Command Palette (**Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + P**) and choosing "Preferences: Color Theme".
