Hi there 👋

Please don’t ask me where the last 2 years went. Can’t believe it took me so long, sorry!

But here it is, **[release 4.0.0](https://github.com/B-iggy/alien-night-discourse-dark-theme/commit/d79baf40325bb53adcde40d8f77995a02889cc78)**.

**Note** : with the release 4.0.0 I redesigned/refactored the theme from ground up. It’s more contrast friendly, it uses CSS variables and is overall more slick.

Again, with a Dark/Light toggle implemented. This time, for now, with help of an external component ( [Dark/Light Mode Toggle](https://meta.discourse.org/t/dark-light-mode-toggle/215585) )

See it in action:

P.S.: @awesomerobot your Google Import setting is still there and hopefully nothing broken 🙂
