Quote:Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox will soon support a new CSS media query called 'prefers-color-scheme' that let's sites know whether you prefer a dark mode, light mode, or have no preference.
In a post to Chromium's blink-dev mailing list, Chromium developer Rune Lillesveen has stated that they plan on releasing support for the the prefers-color-scheme media query in Chrome 76.
This media query will allow web sites to see what color preference is configured on visitor's operating system.
"Support the media query feature 'prefers-color-scheme' from Media Queries Level 5 to let authors adapt web content to user-selected themes in the OS or browser. For instance by selecting dark instead of light appearance in MacOS. Keywords: 'light', 'dark', 'no-preference'."
Using this query, sites can automatically use a dark mode theme if your OS is configured to use one as well, making the site, browser, and operating synchronized in color preferences.
