Modern, dark mode for Google Docs

[Now Supports Material 3 Update]

DocsAfterDark relieves eye-strain from the Google Docs experience with a focus on functionality and artful design.

Easily enable or disable dark mode for any document without modifying the original project. Access dark mode settings and more in the extension option menu, which can be accessed by clicking on the extension icon in the browser toolbar.

Customize the document background to a darker shade, or use any valid background CSS value in the custom field, including images, gradients, and transparent backgrounds.*

With the invert and grayscale options, document content (excluding images*) will be rendered in a comfortable dark mode. By disabling the document border option, documents will blend into the background to create a seamless workspace.

To temporarily toggle dark mode on/off, click on the button in the bottom left corner of the page. Sometimes this button may block other elements, such as the word count widget. When this occurs, enable the Raise Button toggle in the option menu.

The global toggle in the option menu can be used to disable/enable the extension.

The source code, binary releases, and update notes are available on GitHub at https://github.com/waymondrang/DocsAfterDark.

*May be unstable on Chrome

Works pretty well where other dark modes fail with docs - although I think the Invert mode is broken currently as images and gifs are being inverted alongside the document as a whole despite the description saying they are excluded. Still a useable out of the box experience with the "Shaded" function though.

Actually works, but seems to confuse itself when the 'auto dark mode' Chrome flag is enabled. In that case, setting a dark background makes the text unreadable since the text doesn't become white, so the only viable option for me is the 'invert' feature, which inverts page color and text.
But there's another bug: Every 3rd page doesn't actually get its page inverted, so it becomes unreadable with white text. It likely has to do with the Chrome dark mode. Please fix this.
It would be great if you supported inverting Google sheets as well.

My eyes thank you so much for this. Will you be releasing versions for other google doc products like spreadsheets and slides?

Actually works! Unlike other extensions that claim to do the same thing.
