rust-dark-light

Rust crate to detect if dark mode or light mode is enabled. Supports macOS, Windows, Linux, BSDs, and WASM. On Linux and BSDs, first the XDG Desktop Portal dbus API is checked for the color-scheme preference, which works in Flatpak sandboxes without needing filesystem access. If that does not work, fallback methods are used for KDE, GNOME, Cinnamon, MATE, XFCE, and Unity.
