📄 Dark mode

Read Original

This article details a developer's approach to implementing automatic dark mode on a website based on the user's OS preference. It explains the use of CSS variables within the :root selector, the @media (prefers-color-scheme: dark) rule for dark theme definitions, and the inclusion of fallbacks for browser compatibility. The author also describes using SCSS variables to manage color definitions efficiently during the build process.
