I want to read information very often on this forum but the problem is that light theme puts a huge strain on my eyes when I don't use a device with retina display.
I was just thinking, what's stopping us from using the dark mode on this forum without 3rd party extensions? And answer is, yes, nothing!
Here are the steps that we need from forum owners to have a dark mode right now
1. We need to put current colors and dark mode colors in CSS Variables.
2. CSS gradient generator for keeping the gradients on dark mode.
3. Just one Icon
4. A very small JS code, just some lines.
As some of you might know, I challenged myself to build responsive version of current theme. So, I decided to follow that steps and added dark mode on bitcointalk's website that I built and deployed on GitHub static page.
How to test dark mode?
1. Visit:
https://jaybates19.github.io/bitcointalk/2. Click on
icon that's located on the right side, under the search button.
If you can't see it or have some problems, either clean your cache or open the incognito tab and load website from there.
3. Cheers, have a nice day! Hope, we will really see dark mode on this forum.
