Actually, most colorschemes are really 2 colorschemes! The example above sets
colors via `ctermbg` and `guibg`. The former definition will only be used if Vim
was started in a terminal emulator, e.g. xterm. The latter will be used in
graphical environments like gVim.
graphical environments like gVim or when you enable true colors (24bits) support
in terminal Vim by using `set termguicolors`.
If you ever happen to use a certain colorscheme in Vim running in a terminal
emulator and the colors don't look like the colors in the screenshot at all,
chances are that the colorscheme only defined colors for the GUI.
chances are that the colorscheme only defined colors for the GUI _in case of
older Vim versions_ or in can you are running Vim `7.4.1830` or Neovim you
didn't enable true colors in your `.vimrc`
Many people think that running Vim in the terminal won't give you nice color
support for themes like normal editors, but this is not the case anymore.
For more info on this you can check `:h termguicolors`.
I use [gruvbox](https://github.com/morhetz/gruvbox) for the GUI and
[janah](https://github.com/mhinz/vim-janah) for the terminal.
