How TO - Toggle Dark Mode
Switch between dark and light mode with CSS and JavaScript.
Toggle Class
Step 1) Add HTML:
Use any element that should store the content you want to toggle the design
for. In our example, we will use <body> for the sake of simplicity:
Example
<body>
Step 2) Add CSS:
Style the <body> element and create a .dark-mode class for toggle:
Example
body {
padding: 25px;
background-color: white;
color: black;
font-size: 25px;
}
.dark-mode {
background-color: black;
color: white;
}
Step 3) Add JavaScript:
Get the <body> element and toggle between the .dark-mode class:
Example
function myFunction() {
var element =
document.body;
element.classList.toggle("dark-mode");
}
