Material Incognito Dark Theme

Material Incognito Dark Theme

This theme has been deprecated in favour of the official Google Chrome dark theme.

What is Material Incognito Dark Theme?
The 'Material Incognito Dark Theme' is a now-defunct Chrome extension that was engineered to mimic the incognito mode's dark colour scheme across the whole browser interface. As it is fully open-source under the Apache License, anyone can check its source code on GitHub. It's important to note that Chrome theme developers have no power to change the omnibox colour; therefore, it will remain white. To uninstall this theme, users can easily reset to default in the Appearance section of the Settings.

Summary
