Dark Mode

BigPanda's Dark Mode eases eye strain and sharpens display contrast with the help of Dark Reader.

Disclaimer

Dark Mode is an optional capability and is not bundled with standard BigPanda deployment. It relies on a 3rd-party browser extension called Dark Reader, which has not been reviewed or approved for security or compliance by the BigPanda team. BigPanda is not responsible for any implications resulting from the use of Dark Reader.

To switch BigPanda into Dark Mode:

1. Install the Chrome / Firefox Dark Reader extension. You'll be automatically directed to Dark Reader Help, where you can learn more about Dark Reader features.
2. After installation is complete, open BigPanda and click the Sith-face Dark icon to turn on dark mode. Click the Jedi-face Light icon to toggle back to light mode.
3. While the BigPanda app is open, click the On toggle to turn on the dark reader for the site. Click the toggle to Off at any time to disable dark reader for an individual site.

Turn off Dark Reader globally at any time using the extension manager.
