+Title: Dark mode switching
+Author: rodarima

+
+Browsing the web at night or in a dark environment is generally more appealing
+with dark backgrounds. However, during the day or in well illuminated rooms,
+using a light background is generally preferred, as the eyes can shut the pupil
+due to the large amount of light, causing the borders of letters to be sharper,
+making reading easier.
+
+It should be doable to quickly switch from a light mode to a dark mode. Ideally,
+we may want to add a way to control the transition so it is not just binary, but
+more gradual. However, the minimum requirement for this issue is to provide a
+dark mode only.
+
+The dark mode should change the browser UI (menus, tool bars...) but also the
+content itself of the web. For the latter, we would need to define a dark mode
+CSS theme, which can override the web defined colors. Similarly, we can do a
+similar job to try to adjust images so that the background is dark.
+
+Some websites can already work with a dark mode and can provide images with
+adequate colors for a dark theme, without the need to adjust them.
