- System toggle between light and dark mode
- Persist user preference in cookies
- Server-side rendering supported

## Usage
In your `src/+layout.svelte` (recommended) or `+page.svelte` file, add the following code:
```svelte
import {ThemeToggle, appearance} from "@friendofsvelte/toggle";
import "@friendofsvelte/toggle/styles/Toggle.css";
Is dark mode: {appearance.dark}
```
In your `src/hooks.server.ts` file, add the following code:
```ts
import {sequence} from "@sveltejs/kit/hooks";
import {handleAppearance} from "@friendofsvelte/toggle";
export const handle = sequence(
handleAppearance
);
```
Add `class="%appearanceMode%"` in your `app.html` file:
```html
```
Done 🎉, you can now toggle between light and dark mode.
## Previews
**System toggle**

**In-app toggle**

## Custom action
You can also use the `toggle` action to toggle the theme programmatically. Use
the follow utility function to achieve this:
```ts
import {
apperance
} from "@friendofsvelte/toggle";
````
- `appearance` is a class object that stores `dark` boolean state on it.
- setting `appearance.dark = false` with automatically update the UI to light mode.
- `ThemeToggle` is the default component that uses `appearance` to toggle the theme.
```svelte
import {scale} from "svelte/transition";
import Moon from "$lib/toggle/icons/Moon.svelte";
import Sun from "$lib/toggle/icons/Sun.svelte";
import { appearance } from "@friendofsvelte/toggle";
import TrackAppearance from '@friendofsvelte/toggle';
let {class: className = ''} = $props();
{#if appearance.dark !== null}
appearance.dark=!appearance.dark}>
{#if appearance.dark}
{:else}
{/if}
{:else}
{/if}
```
Now, add the following code in your tailwind `app.css`:
```css
@variant dark (&:where(.dark, .dark *));
```
this works for Tailwind V4 users.
