chromeedgesafarifirefox

A browser extension that creates dark mode for any website on the fly. It analyzes web pages and applies customizable dark themes while preserving contrast and readability.

What we love ❤️

  • Works instantly on any website without configuration
  • Processes everything locally in your browser
  • Highly customizable brightness and contrast settings
  • Clean interface without any distractions
  • Open source and actively maintained

Worth noting 💡

  • Some websites might look odd due to automatic conversion
  • Can be slightly slower on complex web pages
  • Site-specific settings are not synced between devices
  • Might affect browser performance on low-end devices

Dark Reader shows how a browser extension should work - it does one thing and does it well. While many dark mode solutions require website-specific coding, this one works everywhere automatically. It's a perfect example of making the web more accessible without compromising on privacy or simplicity.
