How to highlight contents of parenthesis in Atom

I have just started to use Atom editor these days. Before that, I have used python IDLE. IDLE highlight the contents of parenthesis for us when we just created parenthesis. But, Atom does not.

Do you know any themes or packages to make it possible in Atom?

You can use this selector: atom-text-editor .bracket-matcher .region, :host .bracket-matcher .region to highlight the brackets any way you want.

For example:

atom-text-editor .bracket-matcher .region,
:host .bracket-matcher .region {
    border-bottom: none;
    background: red;
}

This will make the brackets have a bright red highlight.

You can try Material Theme, I'm using it and parenthesis is auto-created. Another choice is to install a package named BracketHighlighter.
