Soft UI Dashboard - Dark Mode Support (free sample)

Hello coders!

This article provides a short explanation of the dark mode enhancement crafted on top of Soft UI Dashboard, a popular open-source template released by Creative-Tim. The project can be found on Github, and the sources, based on the permissive (MIT) license, can be used in commercial projects or eLearning activities. Thanks for reading!

👉 How it works

This enhancement was made by coding the following steps:

  • Create a new JS file that handles the user interactions
  • CSS/SCSS files for the style changes
  • Gulp scripts update to handle the new SCSS file

The new files (dark-mode-handler.js and dark-theme-core.css) are included in the pages. The CSS file goes to the header and the JS goes at the bottom, just before closing
