Should I go for Dark Color mode, @Alex ? What do you think?

Should I go for Dark Color mode, @Alex ? What do you think?

For a site like yours with as many long-form articles, absolutely! But for the same reason, I think it is more important to keep a light mode and not go either-or.

If only there were an MD dark mode to help with this.

Only if you used CSS variables in the stylesheets.

Sure we do. Here's what the body selector looks like in a dynamic CSS file:

body {
    background-color: <?php echo $colors['site']['bg_color']; ?>;
    color: <?php echo $colors['site']['text']; ?>;
    font-size: <?php echo $typography['body']['font_size']['desktop']; ?>px;
    font-family: <?php echo $typography['body']['font_family']; ?>;
    font-weight: <?php echo $font_weight; ?>;
    line-height: <?php echo $typography['body']['line_height']['desktop']; ?>px;
    position: relative;
}

Of course, I know you are referring to CSS variables and that is something our dynamic stylesheets could easily plug into, which I am open to for MD's dark mode support.

Started working on a dark mode. There are ifs and buts, but I like the feel of it.

@gauravtiwari it will be best to post feature requests to the proper forum so we can better track and vote on them as this thread is primarily about the MD5.3.2 release.
