Auto Dark Mode with CSS
If you want your site to automatically switch between light and dark themes based on the visitor’s system settings, you can use a @media
query and the prefers-color-scheme
feature.
```css :root { –color-background: #eee; –color-text: #000; }
@media (prefers-color-scheme: dark) { :root { –color-background: #333; –color-text: #eee; } }
body { color: var(–color-text); background-color: var(–color-background); }
```
Updated January 2, 2024 to use :root pseudo-class.
