Description

With the prefers-color-scheme media query, CSS stylesheets can detect whether the user has dark mode enabled in their operating system settings. Can we get a dark theme for Scribble docs? I tend to code at night a bit more than I like to admit, and the bright whites of scribble docs cause a lot of eye strain. Paging @mbutterick for typography concerns and general web design wizardry.
