      You can try to upgrade to educational account. Its completely free while containing every pro feature and doesn't need to verify much

    Thank you very much.
    When working on large projects with multiple components, how do you then implement this dark mode in such a way that it matches properly. Especially when there may be further changes in color to those components

    Quick tip: For the "error" that you encounter when a white text from a button that you dont want it to change to dark (black) color, you can manually select the layer that then select "change variable mode" and select "LIGHT" so it will keep those properties in dark or light mode.

    Thanks for the tut! But looks like adding a mode requires Premium :(

    Really needed this. Thank you! I noticed at 14:08, you decided to break open the variable to solve your problem. I think a new variable (maybe 'btn-color') might have been more "on topic" solution. 🙏🏾

    This was a great video! The fact that you took us through the process step by step helped me understand exactly how mode variables work. That said, I think it would make more sense to name your colors differently. For example, you name the background color "white" but in dark mode it's not white! It would have made more sense to name it "background". Same for "text", etc.

    Hello, I would like to ask, what do the gray numbers 100, 200, and 300 mean?

    • @dawang9760
      @dawang9760 Рік тому

      Is it the name of a color, or some specific value?

    • @femijohn
      @femijohn  Рік тому

      The color name is grey. But the 100, 200 … represents a range on shades of that color 50 being light color shades and 900 being deep shades. Some css frameworks like tailwinds uses this naming conventions too.
