While I don't know how to do it and what is involved (and there is a lot of discussion on the internet about how and why), maybe we make sure Koha respects a person's system-wide choices, instead of more code to maintain (if that is possible).
Whatever choice is made, please please make it optional and not turned on by default - I personally find dark mode websites VERY hard to read (I actively dislike them, and will only read if I really really have to, and have no other choice).
I realise this is the opposite to others preferences 8-)
It is also sometimes "sold" as an accessibility solution, which it can be in some situations.
But more often than not, it is a matter of personal preference.
Some links and articles that provide a (hopefully) balanced view: - Nielsen Norman Group article: Dark Mode: How Users Think About It and Issues to Avoid (2023) https://www.nngroup.com/articles/dark-mode-users-issues/ - Dark mode & accessibility myth (2024) https://stephaniewalter.design/blog/dark-mode-accessibility-myth-debunked/
