Dark mode support on this website

2018-11-03

This website now supports dark mode, if your browser supports 'prefers-color-scheme: dark'.

Quick info: this website now supports a dark color scheme, more commonly called ‘dark mode’.

To try it, use Safari Technology Preview Release 68 (or later), since at this time it’s the only browser supporting the media query. The media query is so fresh that even caniuse.com does not list it yet.

The migration was straightforward: I changed a few colors, and in most places a simple filter: invert(100%); delivered a solid result.

I’d love to see your website support dark mode, too.

Update 2018-11-10: On OLED displays, black pixels save energy because the pixels are turned off. I changed the dark colors to true black to benefit from that.
