Text Editor Themes

In JupyterLab, under Settings, there is a menu item “Text Editor Theme”. This setting modifies the colors of the syntax highlighting within JupyterLab, (a) in notebook code cells, and (b) when editing a source code file directly within JupyterLab.

I have a one JupyterLab installation that lists quite a few themes under “Text Editor Theme”, including:

jupyter
codemirror
abcdef
base16-dark
base16-light
hopscotch
material
mbo
mdn-like
seti
solarized dark
solarized light
the-matrix
xq-light
zenburn

I just installed JupyterLab on another machine that I use, and under “Text Editor Themes” it only lists these two themes:

jupyter
codemirror

what can I do to install the other themes??

(P.S. If I search the web for these theme names, they appear to be “codemirror” themes. How can I add them to jupyterlab under “Text Editor Themes”?)

For those interested, there’s a longer post of this here.
