Dark Mode is More Than Black & White

Simply inverting your colors often leads to poor accessibility. High contrast can cause eye strain.

Key Principles

  • Use Dark Grey: Pure black (#000) can create “smearing” on OLED screens. Use #121212 instead.
  • Desaturate Colors: Bright primary colors look “neon” on dark backgrounds; tone them down for legibility.
