It provides an easy and convenient way to change the theme of your browsing (learning) experience, making it more comfortable for your eyes by generating a dark mode that aims to reduce

alx-darkmode-project's Issues

Dark theme not applied to Page Not Found response

Request for a resource not on the intranet opens a page not found which does not have the dark theme applied to it.

Feature: Add background color to the current date in Events (Planning) Calendar

This can help the learners easily identify the current date.

Improve Repository Documentation

• Add CODE OF CONDUCT documentation
• Add CHANGELOG documentation
• Add CONTRIBUTION documentation
• Improve README documentation

Provide options for users to choose color for code elements

Dark theme implementation for Link Discord account button not complete

The button to link your Discord account on the intranet profile is not fully having the dark theme applied to it.

The button now:

Click to view the page with this button

Firefox Support

I recently switched to using Firefox as my default browser and somehow, I now feel the pain of using the intranet on the light mode. Is there a support for the extension on firefox. If yes, how can I get it running. I already tried to reead the little documentation made available, but I couldn't find any information on firefox support, it's more of a chrome thingy.

Selected options in quiz are not visible

Proposed Code UI

How about this for the code?

Support for new curriculum switcher and its dropdown menu

Started my specialization today and noticed that there is a new dropdown Navbar (I'm assuming it's new since it is not supported by the extension)

Here is the visual look

I am proposing some changes to support dark mode as illustrated:

Subsequenlty, I'm going ahead and creating a pull request to reference this issue.

Made current date on calendar look more presentable and easy to spot

Added borderline colour to the calendar's current date

Feature:
added lime-green(--col-current-date-border) border colour to the current date on the
calendar to make it stand out when checking the calendar

Fix:
Changed the background for current date from #888672 to #121212(--col-bg-400) to  improve the visibility
of the current date and also make it look clean and consistent with the dark theme

Doc:
I made it easier for users to quickly identify the current date on the calender
as soon as they visit the calendar page

The link does not open when you click it directly

Hi, I noticed a usability issue in the popup.html file in ALX-DarkMode-project. Specifically, on line 42 of the popup.html file, a link is missing the target="_blank" attribute, which means that the linked page opens in the same tab, it actually does not open at all when you click it directly. .I suggest adding the target="_blank" attribute to this link to improve the user experience and make the like work as expected. Here's the link to the relevant code:
https://github.com/vinsky001/ALX-DarkMode-project/blob/b84c16432cde51ecef7ba775931c873150cb81e2/popup/popup.html#LL42C12-L43C36

Future Updates to ALX- Dark theme chrome extension, version 2.0

1. Add character count tracker to the Webterm (add a line to show the user when to move to the next line.

Upload extension to Edge Add-on store

Support for Suggested Peers

New Suggested Peers Cards seem to lack support for Dark Mode.
