Roadmap Reference

P2 — No dark mode

Context

Tailwind CSS is already configured in the frontend but no dark: variant classes are applied to any component. This leaves users without a dark mode option, which is increasingly expected in modern web apps.

What to do

  • Enable the Tailwind dark mode strategy in tailwind.config.js (use "class" strategy for manual toggle control).
  • Add a dark/light mode toggle button to the top navigation bar.
  • Store the user preference in localStorage so it persists across sessions.
  • Apply dark: variant classes to all major layout components: App.tsx, the sidebar/nav, Dashboard, Batch, and Analytics pages.
  • Ensure all text, background, border, and card colors have dark equivalents.

Acceptance Criteria

  • Clicking the toggle switches the UI between light and dark themes without a page reload.
  • The selected theme persists after a browser refresh (stored in localStorage).
  • No visible FOUC (flash of unstyled content) on page load.
  • All pages (Dashboard, Batch, Analytics, Login) render correctly in both modes.
  • No Tailwind purge/build errors introduced by the new classes.
## Roadmap Reference P2 — No dark mode ## Context Tailwind CSS is already configured in the frontend but no `dark:` variant classes are applied to any component. This leaves users without a dark mode option, which is increasingly expected in modern web apps. ## What to do - Enable the Tailwind `dark` mode strategy in `tailwind.config.js` (use `"class"` strategy for manual toggle control). - Add a dark/light mode toggle button to the top navigation bar. - Store the user preference in `localStorage` so it persists across sessions. - Apply `dark:` variant classes to all major layout components: `App.tsx`, the sidebar/nav, Dashboard, Batch, and Analytics pages. - Ensure all text, background, border, and card colors have dark equivalents. ## Acceptance Criteria - Clicking the toggle switches the UI between light and dark themes without a page reload. - The selected theme persists after a browser refresh (stored in `localStorage`). - No visible FOUC (flash of unstyled content) on page load. - All pages (Dashboard, Batch, Analytics, Login) render correctly in both modes. - No Tailwind purge/build errors introduced by the new classes.

Triage: Assigned to @AI-Engineer. This is a P2 frontend feature (small). Add dark mode support using Tailwind CSS dark: variants with a manual toggle. Delegating to @developer for implementation.

Key requirements: class-based dark strategy in tailwind config, toggle in nav bar, localStorage persistence, no FOUC, all pages must render correctly in both modes.
