Hello!...well, I've just have installed Zed code editor and Explore some files about preferences and the basic README.md introduction file. 
In the middle of this document appears:

* `themes` is where themes are defined. For the default themes have a look at the `/default/themes.json` file. Essentially they're a simple JSON object with a link to a CSS file (also stored in the Configuration project).

I want to know exactly how to create a new theme on Zed, because I want to make it transparent.

Do you mean a theme where icons or other desktop stuff behind an open Zed app is visible? I don't think CSS can do this. Themes are limited by the capabilities of CSS. You can make stuff in the browser window itself transparent or opaque.

Correct, I don't think chrome apps can do this right now.
