> Now all I need to do is look back and find how to get the `midnight-red` theme working

```auto
        theme: "midnight-red", // << same as before - set it in settings.
        codeEditor: {
            lib: "monaco", //can be "monaco" or "ace"
            options: {
                // /* theme - must match the file name of a theme in 
                // * packages/node_modules/@node-red/editor-client/src/vendor/monaco/dist/theme
                // * e.g. "tomorrow-night", "upstream-sunburst", "github", "my-theme"
                // */
                theme: "vs-dark",
                wordWrap: true,
                fontSize: 14,
                fontLigatures: true,
                fontFamily: "Cascadia Code, Fira Code, Consolas, 'Courier New', monospace"
            }
        }
