To begin, download and install the "Color Theme Editor" plugin from the Unreal Engine Marketplace. Once installed, go to the Project Settings section in the main menu of Unreal Engine. Within this section, find the "Color Theme Editor" option under the editor settings.
When you select this option, a menu will appear where you can choose from a variety of available themes. Select your preferred theme, and you'll notice that the change is applied immediately to the editor's interface, reflecting in real-time.
The background of the node editor can be changed from the same window by choosing a color. If you want to choose a different color for the grid than the background, you only have to deactivate the checkbox that is active by default and it will allow you to change the grid color independently.
