How can I change cursor color in VSCode?

Question

Is there a way to change the cursor colour in the Visual Studio Code editor window?

I am slightly colour blind, so I would like to change it from red to something else (yellow maybe) to improve accessibility and make it easier for me to read.

Try adding this to your global preferences file:

"workbench.colorCustomizations": {     "editorCursor.foreground": "#ffff00",     "terminalCursor.foreground": "#ffff00" } 

Also worth noting that if you're colourblind, there are probably some colourblind-friendly themes for vscode out there, though I can't say I have looked for them myself.
