Dark Mode for Documentation: For the Love of all that is Good and Proper

See original GitHub issue

Problem 👁🗡👁🗡

When I or one of the other Lizard People who live and work under rocks late, late into the evening need to read the documentation we have to have our retinas scorched when we go from our nice black background text editor to the fiery inferno of an all-white background.

Solution

A smattering of CSS, maybe a local storage toggle?

Alternatives

const  = '🐶There are no alternatives, only Zuul...'

Yeah, there are extensions to force dark mode, but the code blocks always look funky and you lose all syntax highlighting, among other wonky stuff.

Additional context

It would really REALLY make the docs more pleasant to interact with for a significant portion of the community.

✌🏼, ~B

EDIT: Came back in November, my eyes are still bleeding.
