Summary
Add a dark/black theme option to Dillinger for better readability in low-light environments.
Motivation
Many users prefer dark themes to reduce eye strain, especially during long writing sessions.
Dark mode is now a widely expected feature in modern editors.
Proposed Solution
- Add a dark theme CSS (e.g.,
dark.css or via CSS variables)
- Add a toggle button in the toolbar (sun/moon icon) to switch between light and dark
- Optionally persist the preference in localStorage
Alternatives Considered
- Using
prefers-color-scheme media query for automatic detection
Would love to work on this if the maintainers are open to it!
