Visual Studio Code status bar color

Question

Visual Studio Code\'s default status bar color is blue and I find it quite distracting. I used this extension to change the color but it has stopped working after the 1.10

Since every theme is so different, you probably don't want to make changes like this globally. Instead, specify them on a per-theme basis: e.g.:

"workbench.colorCustomizations": {
    "[Some Theme Name]": {
        "statusBar.background" : "#486357",
        "statusBar.foreground" : "#c8e9c5",
    },
    "[Some Other Theme Name]": {
        "statusBar.background" : "#385357",
        "statusBar.foreground" : "#d7e9c4",
    }
},

That way when you switch between your favorite themes, your customizations of them will not be forgotten, and will make sense in that context.
