Question

I'm unsure if this should be supported by mini.hues or mini.colors should take up this task. Feel free to guide, thanks!

'mini.hues' does not and will not support transparency out of the box. It can mostly be achieved by setting background attribute to NONE in some common highlight groups (like Normal, SignColumn, etc.).

My suggestion would indeed be to use 'mini.colors' and its add_transparency() method for color scheme. So basically:

• Execute require('mini.hues').setup(...) to get the color scheme you'd like.
• Execute require('mini.colors').get_colorscheme():add_transparency():write({ name = 'mine' }) (use argument for add_transparency() to adjust which highlight groups you want to make transparent) and it will add '~/.config/nvim/colors/mine.lua' color scheme file which you can later use via :colorscheme mine.
