Metamask-extension: Add night mode

Created on 24 Aug 2016  路  10Comments  路  Source: MetaMask/metamask-extension

Some people even prefer night mode by default! That's another discussion!

Should be in settings, should persist between page openings, all views should adjust accordingly.

Probably means any reference to a CSS color should actually reference a css color file that can conditionally swap, kindof like i18n for appearance.

Requires design for a night mode, so all other things being the same, but with a darker color theme.

Yep! The UI here is a outdated and the colors might need to go through a more thorough accessibility test for colorblind @bdresser

@ChrisCates may be interested in helping here!

@bdresser, @cjeria,

I'm just going to throw in some CSS (plus a button switch) in a PR, and we can move from there.
Will get to it tonight!~

Sounds good @ChrisCates. We'll need to do an accessibility audit to make sure the colors are good for the colorblind, but don't let that slow you down!

Here's some stuff I did.
Feel free to give feedback. I should probably update it to @cjeria's color palette. Which hex codes did you use?

Any have recommendations for svg editors?
I also need to update the /images/logo/metamask-logo-horizontal-beta.svg image.

I see some good work on this from months ago... is this aspect of the project still going?
Being implemented? The white is physically painful for me, but I want to use the extension, so... ?

Hey guys, any news on night mode feature?
I'm really reluctant on installing a third party plugin to achieve this and other users should be too but it's either that or migraines..

@fonziemedia no updates, it's still a nice to have
