It seems like a grift to me. SEO the name of a popular theme (Darcula) and sell a Pro version.

Edit: my gripe is really with Google and Bing, which will show a lot of results for Dracula in the results for darcula theme when there are plenty of results for Darcula. This happens a lot with other terms as well. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯



The Pro version actually happened much later after the theme was created. Google probably chooses Dracula because it's the more popular choice.


Indeed. There's also a nice origin story of the original Dracula theme. https://draculatheme.com/about


"Darcula" actually seems like a better name.


Isn't that the JetBrains default dark scheme?
