Description

I'd like to adjust the dark mode palette to be a little more user-friendly. Possibly slightly darker main color and full support across the site. The colors should pass accessibility tests for visibility.

Here are some links to help with creating a palette. I'm fine if someone just wants to create the palette without actually implementing it as well. You could demo the palette in the comments.

• colormind.io (this tool is amazing)

Hey @collinmesser. I could make that changes. I'm a front-end developer, designer and a11y advocate. 😃

I can't assign. Could you do that for me?

@collinmesser I'm studying about the UX. What do you think about a theme switch on the top bar?

[collinmesser]

@lucasjs You can check out the current build here https://esfiddle.netlify.com. There is a theme switcher on the top bar, but if you'd like to adjust it feel free.

That's awesome! Thanks!

Sorry for the late response!
I've been studying a lot about dark and light mode.
Now I'm working on it, branch add-darkmode.

How's this going for you @lucasjs? do you need anything from me at all?

[lucasjs]

@collinmesser I'm studying the colors and I will finish it in a few days. I'll need a review after that :)
