GDark: Dark mode for Gmail & Chat

By: Tex Add-on
This tool adds dark mode for the "compose" and "reading" panes for Gmail. No data collected. Optional night-only schedule.
xHeader
Modify request and response headers. No ads, no malware.

Features & Capabilities

This is a simple darkening of just the white email area and bits of UI -- so if you already have a theme you like, this doesn't change your theme, it just makes the email area itself dark.

No accounts, no analytics, no network requests. The only thing stored is your chosen mode and schedule, in the browser's own extension storage.

Works with Gmail's Dark theme (Settings → Theme → Dark). Firefox 127 or newer. Not affiliated with Google; Gmail is a trademark of Google LLC.
