Growth is always so mysterious and amazing, it is because we do not notice, we do not feel surprised.

Remember that terminals used to use dark mode in the days of DOS and Linux because it provided the highest contrast. In fact, another reason is that the display at that time was CRT, the 50/60Hz flicker would cause visual fatigue, but now with TFT and OLED screens, flicker is no longer a problem, and the contrast support is very good.

Why do programmers still use Dark mode?

Here national programmer summary has the following reasons.

  1. Light attraction bug theory

There’s no way to know, but as bug-plagued programmers, it could be a reason.

  1. Relieve eye strain

I think that’s one of the more plausible reasons. Because programmers need to stare at the screen for a long time, using bright color mode is more likely to cause eye strain. Light mode produces a lot of blue light and glare, while dark mode does not.

  1. Pay attention

Another problem is that the bright color pattern draws the programmer’s attention away from where the code is, not where it is outside the code.

  1. Comparative strong

Ergonomically, depth mode provides a high contrast ratio and makes it easier for programmers to focus on highlighted code rather than outside of it.

Here are two pictures for a comparison: 5. Office environment

Most of the time, programmers will be working in a dark environment, which would be uncomfortable to use a bright color mode. We’ve all had the feeling that in a room with no lights on, the screen can sometimes be hard to see if it’s in bright color mode. So we turn down the brightness of the screen to suit our eyes.

  1. Dark mode is cool

Some people find it easier to look like a hacker by using dark mode.

How to use light and dark colors correctly?

We see a lot of software designed for day and night. Light color mode is used during the day and dark color mode is used at night. These two modes are designed to match the intensity of light in the surrounding environment.

The most comfortable reading mode is when the brightness of the surrounding light matches the brightness of the screen. In other words, a bright color mode may be more advantageous in a well-lit environment, whereas a dark color mode may be more favorable in a low-light environment.
