# Dark Mode by GracePress

A configurable dark mode for WordPress websites and the WordPress administration area.

Dark Mode by GracePress includes anti-flash loading, operating-system preference support, visual tuning, media correction, transitions, and accessible controls that can be placed where a site needs them.

## Project status

Version 4.8.18 is the current public-development baseline. The plugin is being prepared, documented, and tested for submission to WordPress.org. Version 5.0.0 is reserved for the deliberate first WordPress.org release.

There is no official public download yet. Candidate packages are used only for controlled testing until the public release is approved.

## Privacy and integrations

The public plugin contains no telemetry, private update connection, license server, or required external service.

GracePress Central Hub routing and OmniLog events are optional local integrations. They are used only when those plugins are already installed and active; neither is required.

## Installation

The official installation route will be published here and on the public plugin page after the WordPress.org release is approved. See `readme.txt` for the current controlled-testing instructions and WordPress plugin documentation.
