Turn your Jira Cloud to Black, a nice looking Dark Theme.

Jira Black is a lightweight Chrome extension designed to apply a sleek dark theme to your Jira Cloud interface.

The extension has been improved thanks to community contributions that helped fix bugs and glitches, ensuring a smooth, visually pleasing experience. With no complicated settings or extra permissions, Jira Black does exactly what you need: a clean and nice-looking dark theme for your Jira Cloud environment, perfect for users who prefer dark modes or want to reduce eye strain.

User reviews

Users appreciate the free, effective, and visually pleasant dark mode provided by this Chrome extension, especially for Jira cloud instances. Many find it better than paid alternatives and praise its ease of use. However, several users report that it does not work with self-hosted Jira, limiting its utility. Additionally, some issues persist with readability on Confluence, Tempo, and test cases, as well as a lack of customization like toggles or site configuration. Image inversion has also caused dissatisfaction in certain cases.

No way to configure the url's, if you self-host Jira this extension is useless. Also it's not a dark mode, just color-inverse.

I couldn't use this extension because I use a self hosted version of Jira. As explained in the extension description, it doesn't work on self hosted versions of Jira. I would love to see added support for this in the future and I am sure I am not the only one :)
