The Rise of Dark Mode
Dark mode has become a popular feature for both websites and mobile applications. It not only gives your application a modern look, but also reduces eye strain, especially in low-light environments.
Key Advantages
- Reduced eye strain: Less light output, especially at night.
- Energy savings: On OLED screens, dark mode conserves battery.
- Accessibility: Can improve readability for users with light sensitivity.
Implementation Tips
Always give users the ability to switch between light and dark modes. Respect system preferences with CSS:
@media (prefers-color-scheme: dark) {
body { background: #121212; color: #fff; }
}
Supporting dark mode is now part of delivering great user experiences.
