This is absolutely perfect for what I needed! Nice light plugin, slider looks neat with good customisation options, and ensured I could get my site displaying exactly as I want it in dark mode. I didn’t find it clear from the plugin description how the plugin works, so it might be useful to add a direct link to the readme file where you can find that information github[dot]com/richtabot/dark-mode-toggle-block/blob/main/README.md

I have tried many dark mode toggle plugins, this is one of the best and easiest plugin to work with.
Just install it and add the block where ever you want.
As simple as that.
Thank you.
