How can I change the color of <> tags on Visual Studio Code?

Time:02-01

I recently changed my color theme in VisualStudio Code, I like everything from the theme except for the light purple color of the <> tags, they clash with the pink. How can I change them so they're a different color, preferable just a darker purple. Btw the theme im using is called Tokyo Night Storm.

Here's an image showing how the angle brackets are currently colored:
<> tags

I tried going into my settings.json couldn't find exactly what to write.

Use the Developer: Inspect Editor Tokens and Scopes action to open the Scope Inspector. Then click on the token you want to inspect. Then find out its textmate scopes. In this case, the opening angle bracket is:

punctuation.definition.tag.begin.html
meta.tag.structure.html.start.html
text.html.derivative

Pick an appropriate textmate scope, and then use it in a token colour customization like so:

"editor.tokenColorCustomizations": {
    "[Tokyo Night Storm]": {
        "textMateRules": [{
            "scope":"punctuation.definition.tag.begin.html",
            "settings": {
                "foreground": "#FF0000",
                "fontStyle": "bold"
            }
        },{
            "scope":"punctuation.definition.tag.end.html",
            "settings": {
                "foreground": "#FF0000",
                "fontStyle": "bold"
            }
        }],
    }
},

See also the docs for creating your own colour theme.

Did you try this : Options -> fonts and colors -> {field you want to customise} ->Custom
