We won’t keep you “in the dark” about this any longer… Dark Mode for NuGet.org is finally here!
Your feedback has been invaluable in making this happen. We know that eye strain is a significant issue for many developers, and we’re excited to offer a solution. Whether you prefer it for aesthetics or necessity, Dark Mode is here to enhance your experience.
Inspired by the sleek and modern design of Fluent UI, we’re integrated a color scheme that is easy on the eyes and aligns with the aesthetics of other Microsoft products.

Dark mode on NuGet.org respects your system themes settings on both Windows and Mac. Although you can manually toggle the settings (shown below), it automatically adapts to your operating system’s preferences, so there’s no need to toggle settings within NuGet.org itself! However, you can toggle between light and dark mode in your NuGet account settings, as shown below, to truly customize your experience.
With dark mode now live, it’s the perfect time for package owners to test your packages to ensure they stand out in both light and dark environments. This small step can make a big difference in how users perceive your package at a glance.
As always, we’re constantly committed to improving your experience on NuGet.org. Please direct any feedback regarding contrast, accessibility, or any other bugs to GitHub.
Love it, however, I do agree with the previous commentators that there should be a toggle for light/dark mode at the header or footer of the page.
Agreed! See https://github.com/NuGet/NuGetGallery/issues/10066
Moving the Theme options into the Account Settings is not a welcoming decision. Who approved this?
Do the general users need to have an account to set up a theme?
Move it to the header/footer of the page quite like this blog page. Just have a look at the header.
See https://github.com/NuGet/NuGetGallery/issues/10066
So I can’t change the theme without logging in? Damn…
Not yet. We plan to release this shortly. See
