Usage

Add your custom switch for the Dark Mode toggle followed by the dark-mode-switch.min.js script:

<div class="custom-control custom-switch">
  <input type="checkbox" class="custom-control-input" id="darkSwitch" />
  <label class="custom-control-label" for="darkSwitch">Dark Mode</label>
</div>
<script src="dark-mode-switch.min.js"></script>

Edit the dark-mode.css to suit your site - the one included here is a very basic example.

How it works

Turning dark mode on will add data-theme="dark" to the body tag. You can use CSS to target the elements on the page like so:

[data-theme="dark"] {
  background-color: #111 !important;
  color: #eee;
}
