Hi, i am happy to finally publish my first LaTeX-Package: darkmode The darkmode Package provides an API for template and package developers to create dynamic color schemes for light- and darkmodes. For those unaware: We refer to dark mode when a document has a dark background with a light font and to light mode if it has a dark font with a light background. Therefore, it provides the following Commands: \IfDarkModeT{<true code>} \IfDarkModeF{<false code>} \IfDarkModeTF{<true code>}{<false code>} \enabledarkmode \disabledarkmode (enabledarkmode and disabledarkmode should only be used at the preamble) Why? While for the common task of printing a dark mode has a lot of disadvantages and would take a lot of ink, theese days it becomes more and more common to view PDF files directly on a Screen. And Screens emit a lot of Blue light, which - especially in the evening - can be really annoying to stare at when working on a large text document. Also modern displays can get so bright that a stark black and white contrast is too strong for most lighting scenarios. Kind regards, Ruben
