Make Code Demos Inclusive: Check Your VS Code Theme

In preparation for one of my sessions, we did a tech checkup, and I asked the technician if the code was readable from the back. He confirmed and admitted that he is color blind, so he cannot see colors correctly. Other than that, everything was fine.

Take a look at how you can check your current theme directly in VS Code.
