Examples
Basic usage
This example demonstrates how to disambiguate between the color scheme preference set by the user agent vs a programmatic override.
js
if (navigator.preferences.colorScheme.override === null) {
console.log(
"The user agent set the following color scheme:",
navigator.preferences.colorScheme.value,
);
} else {
console.log(
"The following color scheme was set programmatically:",
navigator.preferences.colorScheme.override,
);
}
