This question is OT. Hugo is agnostic about dark mode.

You need to look into other channels for CSS/HTML questions, try searching the web, StackOverflow etc. For example here is a [guide to dark mode](https://css-tricks.com/a-complete-guide-to-dark-mode-on-the-web/) from CSS-Tricks.

Please have a look at the [forum rules](https://discourse.gohugo.io/t/help-keep-this-forum-practical/31644) for future reference.
