The Rise of Dark Mode Aesthetics
Dark mode isn't just a trend; it's a preference for millions of users. But designing for dark mode requires more than just reversing black and white. ### Depth and Shadows In dark interfaces, we use subtle gradients and elevation levels to create depth. Pure black (#000000) can often be too harsh; try using deep slates or navies instead. ### Highlight Colors Vibrant neon and pastel accents pop beautifully against dark backgrounds. Use our Gradient Generator to create glowing borders and buttons.
