KiCad 6 is changing to a JSON-based color theme system. Recent nightly builds already support the new system, where each color theme lives in a JSON file in the colors directory of the user settings path (see "How to use a color theme" above.)
To use the JSON version of a theme, just copy the file into your colors directory. The next time you run KiCad, it will detect the new theme file and you will be able to choose it in the preferences. Each KiCad application can use a different color theme if you wish.

In the new system, the footprint editor and PcbNew use the same color theme. If you would like to have different colors for those two applications, the way to do it is to choose a different theme file in the PcbNew and footprint editor preferences dialogs.
