Release an adaptive theme

[douglaslassance]

In order for Firefox to follow your operating system light or dark theme, the only option is to pick the built-in "System" theme. It would be nice to offer a Dracula/Alucard system theme.

Not entirely sure what you're suggesting here. Are you suggesting to have the theme change between dark and light modes? As far as I know, the consensus from the project was that there would never be a light mode version, so there's no dracula theme that supports light mode. I'm just a maintainer for this one project though.

I'm not even entirely sure how one would go about implementing this feature. I couldn't find much about it online.

I think what would need to happen is for Firefox to allow picking a custom dark versus light theme. That's something it might be able to do, but I could not find it. So probably you are right, it's not on you or this repository to solve this problem.

Providing a Dracula/Alucard system theme for Firefox would kind of address the issue, but after giving it more thought, I don't think that would be the right solution.

It seems like Alucard is actually a part of the project and I just didn't know that light themes were now supported.
I'd be down to provide a light theme version as well. But I'm still not sure how we would have an adaptive theme, if you or someone else somehow manages to figure it out, I'd be happy to merge those changes here.

Looks like the built-in adaptive theme is defined here.

I've looked at it but isn't that using internal css variables to achieve the effect? I think maybe the only way for us to do it might be to actually use some javascript to do this. Assuming we can change those properties through JS.

Also as a side note, I've implemented a light version, it's just waiting for approval on the addons store.
Once it's approved, it should be visible here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/dracula-light-theme-alucard/
