Description

Current Design: Dark Mode works, but the UI, including cards, uses bright and vibrant colors, which doesn't provide the expected dark mode experience. The cards stand out too much with high-saturation colors that are more suited for light mode.

Proposed Design: Update dark mode with

  • Backgrounds: Dark gray or black.
  • Cards: Use darker tones with muted accent colors (e.g., deep blues, purples) to maintain contrast without being too bright.
  • Text: Light gray or white for readability.
  • UI Elements: Softer, less saturated colors to reduce brightness

Benefits:

  • Reduced eye strain in low-light conditions.
  • Improves overall aesthetics.
  • Better user satisfaction by offering a true dark mode experience.
