DocsAfterDark

Beyond dark mode for Google Docs

DocsAfterDark is a powerful Chrome extension that transforms your Google Docs experience beyond the standard dark mode. With this tool, you can effortlessly switch between a sleek, modern dark mode and a vibrant, dynamic light mode without altering your original documents. Customize the look further by adjusting accent colors using a hue slider and removing document borders for a clean, seamless workspace.

Additional features include an invert option for comfortable viewing in dark mode, a toggle button to switch modes temporarily, and customization settings easily accessible from the toolbar icon. Compatible with Chromium-based browsers, DocsAfterDark enhances readability while maintaining your documents' integrity. Source code and updates are openly available on GitHub, and you can support development via Buy Me a Coffee.

Thanks!! I love you! I love being able to choose which section of the page to apply dark mode to, personally I like having the background dark and the page blank. And that is possible with this extension
