Implemented a light/dark mode toggle using useState, useEffect, and localStorage. The theme defaults to the user's OS preference on first load.
Also updated tailwind.config to fix syntax errors, enable darkMode: "class", and configure DaisyUI.

Walkthrough

A new ThemeToggle React component is introduced to manage light and dark themes, with state persisted in localStorage and synchronized with the OS preference. Tailwind configuration is updated to enable class-based dark mode. The ThemeToggle is imported and placed in the header of the frontend, but not yet integrated into the main App JSX.

Changes

Cohort / File(s) Change Summary
Theme Toggle Component
Backend/Theme.jsx
Introduced ThemeToggle React component for toggling and persisting light/dark mode using localStorage and OS preference.

Poem

In code’s bright warren, a toggle appears,
For light and dark to switch, my bunny cheers!
With Tailwind’s help and localStorage, too,
Your theme’s remembered—old or new.
Hop, hop, hooray, for modes that gleam,
Now every coder gets their dream!

Frontend/tailwind.config.cjs (2)

2-2: LGTM! Correct CommonJS import syntax.

The conversion from ES module import to CommonJS require is properly implemented.


4-5: Excellent dark mode configuration.

The darkMode: "class" setting is the correct approach for the ThemeToggle component's implementation, which adds/removes the "dark" class on the root element.

Backend/Theme.jsx (1)

26-38: Excellent UI implementation with proper accessibility.

The button implementation includes proper ARIA labels, responsive styling with dark mode variants, and intuitive icon usage (sun for dark mode, moon for light mode).

Frontend/src/App.jsx (3)

9-11: LGTM! Consistent quote formatting.

The import statement formatting changes to use double quotes are consistent with the codebase style.


20-31: LGTM! Style object reformatting.

The style objects are reformatted for better readability while maintaining the same functional properties.


12-12: Fix import path after moving ThemeToggle component.

The import path is incorrect. After moving ThemeToggle from Backend/Theme.jsx to Frontend/src/components/ThemeToggle.jsx, update the import:

-import ThemeToggle from "./components/ThemeToggle";
+import ThemeToggle from "../../Backend/Theme";

Should become:

+import ThemeToggle from "./components/ThemeToggle";

⚠️ Potential issue

Fix file location and add error handling.

The component implementation is solid, but there are several issues to address:

  1. File location: This Frontend component is incorrectly placed in the Backend folder.
  2. Missing error handling: localStorage access can throw errors in some environments.
  3. Potential SSR issues: Direct window access during initialization could cause hydration mismatches.

Apply these fixes:

// Move file from Backend/Theme.jsx to Frontend/src/components/ThemeToggle.jsx

import { useEffect, useState } from "react";
import { Sun, Moon } from "lucide-react";

export default function ThemeToggle() {
  const [isDark, setIsDark] = useState(() => {
+   try {
      const savedTheme = localStorage.getItem("theme");
      if (savedTheme === "dark") return true;
      if (savedTheme === "light") return false;

      // No saved preference — fallback to OS setting
+     if (typeof window !== "undefined") {
        return window.matchMedia("(prefers-color-scheme: dark)").matches;
+     }
+     return false; // Default for SSR
+   } catch {
+     return false; // Fallback if localStorage fails
+   }
  });

  useEffect(() => {
+   try {
      const root = window.document.documentElement;

      if (isDark) {
        root.classList.add("dark");
        localStorage.setItem("theme", "dark");
      } else {
        root.classList.remove("dark");
        localStorage.setItem("theme", "light");
      }
+   } catch {
+     // Handle localStorage errors gracefully
+   }
  }, [isDark]);

In Backend/Theme.jsx lines 1 to 39, move this frontend React component file from
the Backend folder to an appropriate Frontend directory. Wrap all localStorage
accesses in try-catch blocks to safely handle potential errors. Also, avoid
direct window or document access during initial state setup and rendering by
using useEffect to defer these calls until after mounting, preventing SSR
hydration mismatches.

Integrate header within the App component.

The header is currently rendered outside the App component, which creates a disconnected UI structure. Consider integrating it within the main App component for better component hierarchy.

// Remove standalone header
-<header className="flex justify-end p-4">
-  <ThemeToggle />
-</header>;

function App() {
  return (
    <div
      style={{
        position: "relative",
        minHeight: "100vh",
        width: "100vw",
        overflow: "hidden",
      }}
    >
      <div style={{ position: "absolute", inset: 0, zIndex: 0 }}>
        <DarkVeil />
      </div>
      <div style={{ position: "relative", zIndex: 1 }}>
+       <header className="flex justify-end p-4">

In Frontend/src/App.jsx around lines 14 to 16, the header element is rendered
outside the main App component, causing a disconnected UI structure. Move the
header JSX code inside the return statement of the App component so it becomes
part of the component's render output, ensuring proper component hierarchy and
UI integration.
