Color

The Material Design Color System provides the following color utilities:

bg-utilities
text-utilities

Required

The color tokens provided by this project provide a set of default values (light mode and dark mode). In order to make the color work properly, this project writes the following styles by default:

/* Method 1: Import preset.css file */
@import "@sandlada/material-design-css/preset.css";

/* Method 2: Insert color-scheme */
:root:not([dark]) {
    color-scheme: light;
}
:root[dark] {
    color-scheme: dark;
}

To enable dark mode, add the dark attribute on the html element:

<html dark>
    <!-- ... -->
</html>

For a detailed description of M3 Color, see Definition of M3 Color.
