Description

Hello,

Thank you for the great color scheme. How difficult is it to add support for new languages? Would it be possible to add support for groovy?

Here is a screenshot of what it currently looks like:

I'm willing to help if you can give me some pointers!

Research direction
Examine existing language support in the repository, such as Python or JavaScript syntax files. Identify the pattern used to add a new language. Then, create a syntax file for Groovy following the same pattern. Test the colorscheme with a sample Groovy file.
