Dark Mode

Dark Mode is a user interface (UI) design option that uses dark background colors with light text and elements, reducing screen brightness and creating a visually less intense experience. It’s popular in apps and websites as an alternative to the traditional light mode. Dark mode reduces eye strain, especially in low-light environments, and may conserve battery life on OLED screens. Designers must ensure that contrast levels and readability are optimized for accessibility.
