Full summary

Dark Background and Light Text enables dark mode on every webpage. The exact colors are configurable and it can be disabled per domain e.g. on pages which have their own dark mode e.g. Youtube or Reddit.

This extension applies a universal dark theme to all web pages. Basically, the extension inserts a small set of CSS rules on every page load to convert the site's style to dark theme. This extension provides the following customizations:

  1. You can disable it on one or several hostnames if the website already supports its own dark style.
  2. You can inject custom CSS rules for each domain
  3. You can append the default rules with your own global CSS rules.

Note that this extension uses non-persistent background page to prevent resource usage when it is inactive.
