Next-Themes (Dark Light) mode in NEXT.js 13 with Tailwind CSS
In the latest version of NEXT.js, version 13, a new feature has been introduced that allows developers to easily implement a dark/light mode in their applications using the Next-Themes library. This feature, combined with Tailwind CSS, makes it simple to create a responsive and visually appealing user interface.
Getting Started
To get started with Next-Themes in a NEXT.js 13 project, you will need to install the library:
npm install next-themes
Once installed, you can import the ThemeProvider component from next-themes and wrap your application with it to enable dark/light mode functionality:
import { ThemeProvider } from "next-themes";
function MyApp({ Component, pageProps }) {
return (
);
}
export default MyApp;
Implementing Dark/Light Mode
With Next-Themes set up, you can now easily implement dark/light mode in your components. Next-Themes provides a useTheme hook that allows you to access the current theme and switch between dark and light modes:
import { useTheme } from "next-themes";
function MyComponent() {
const { theme, setTheme } = useTheme();
return (
Current Theme: {theme}
);
}
Styling with Tailwind CSS
To style your components in dark/light mode, you can use Tailwind CSS, a utility-first CSS framework that makes it easy to create responsive designs. Tailwind CSS provides classes for managing dark/light mode styles, making it simple to create visually appealing designs that adapt to the user’s preference:
With these classes, you can easily adjust the background and text colors based on the current theme, providing a seamless transition between dark and light modes.
Conclusion
By combining Next-Themes with Tailwind CSS, developers can quickly implement dark/light mode functionality in their NEXT.js 13 applications. This provides a more user-friendly experience and allows for better accessibility for all users. With these tools, creating visually appealing and responsive designs has never been easier.
