<h1>Supporting Basic Dark Mode</h1>
<p>2023-03-07</p>
<p>The default <code>barf</code> site generator now supports basic dark mode functionality. This has been achieved by including the standard <code>color-scheme</code> meta tag in the core <code>header.html</code> file:</p>
<pre><code>&lt;meta name=&quot;color-scheme&quot; content=&quot;dark light&quot;&gt;
</code></pre>
<p>This change also ships with some minor updates to the default <code>blockquote</code> design. You can see an example below:</p>
<blockquote><p>This is a really <em>cool</em> blockquote</p>
</blockquote>
<h2>Minor Caveat</h2>
<p>Unfortunately, Safari still has minor <code>ahref</code> / link color issue when defaulting to browser dark mode. If this is a problem for your own build of <code>barf</code>, take a look at a <a href="https://bt.ht/safari-default-dark-mode/">solution I wrote about here</a>.</p>
<p>Personally, I can't be bothered to add that extra code to this project. The Safari team needs to get their shit together and fix such a simple bug. Plus, you shouldn't be using Safari anyway - it's proprietary garbage.</p>
