Dark Mode in Two Lines of CSS

No theme classes, no localStorage, no toggle wired to a click handler. color-scheme: light dark tells the browser this page renders either way, and light-dark() picks the right value per property — so the page follows the operating system on its own. The demo flips the container's own color-scheme so you can watch both halves without touching system settings.

Automatic Light/Dark Theme with CSS `light-dark()`

This UI trick demonstrates how to implement a fully automatic light and dark mode theme using only CSS, leveraging the `color-scheme` property and the `light-dark()` function. It elegantly switches themes based on the user's operating system preference, requiring zero JavaScript and preventing any flash of unstyled content on load.

Dynamic CSS Color Palette Generation with color-mix()

Generate an entire color palette—including shades, tints, and interactive states—from a single brand color using CSS's `color-mix()` function. This enables effortless re-theming of components by simply updating one CSS variable.
