Description

Description

The background highlight that appears when you hover over something makes the code hard to read if the color of the code happens to also be blue. hard-to-read

Expected Behavior

I should still be able to read the code comfortably when hovering over it.

Actual Behavior

See above picture. The contrast is really, really low.

Look at the CSS files related to hover styling in the atom ide ui package, likely in a styles directory. The issue highlights low contrast on light themes. A solution could involve adjusting the background highlight color or adding a more prominent border.
