make a scratch editor dark theme
Well, it’s been 5 years and no ST or pre-ST members have came in so… I don’t think this will be coming anytime soon.

GUYS STOP POSTING AGAIN AND AGAIN. LTPDYou should just stop follow this discussion. We don't know that with the support probably Scratch will later add dark mode.

(#2313)Well, the Scratch Team needs to fix and improve the server, fix bugs and deal with appeals and reports. They don't have much time to implement this suggestion.

Someone said Scratch 3.0 isn't finished yet, so maybe the suggestion have to set aside for awhile(#2313)Well, the Scratch Team needs to fix and improve the server, fix bugs and deal with appeals and reports. They don't have much time to implement this suggestion.

Sadly this may not be possible in scratch 3.0, but, you can work in turbowarp and do it that way…

Hello
The dark theme existed in Scratch 1x, but the developers got rid of it in 2x.
Why not re-implement it? Sometimes bright white can be straining to the eyes, hence need for an option to enable a dark mode.
Techno
*** Note from the Scratch Team ***
Please don't add links to browser extensions, userstyles or userscripts - that's going against this policy
Some people are saying that I copied this person's request for a dark mode. I am not, because I didn't even know that this person already said something about it. Please stop saying I copied it, me and this person might just be wanting the same thing, and who can blame us. My eyes hurt just typing this.
Here's a joke:
Why do developers always use dark mode?
Because light attracts bugs.

(#2321)Why is this not possible in 3.0? It's just a matter of changing some CSS in the editor.

I really like the dark mode. It looks cool.
I think it's more eye friendly because a lot of professional programming software uses dark mode.
Especially when the room is darker, not everyone's room is that bright.
I think it will be hard to wait for Scratch Team to finish this function.
So I made my own dark mode editor

Thank you for your like.
The entrance to this editor is in my signature, would you like to experience it and give me more ideas?
I hope it can become even cooler.
