+---
+I dropped a light/dark theme toggle into the navigation of my site, replacing the prior reliance on the visitor's preference set at the OS level (though it does still consider this preference).<!-- excerpt -->
+
+I built the button as a short Liquid partial:
+
+{% raw %}
+```liquid
+<li class="theme__toggle client-side">
+  <span class="light">
+    {% tablericon "sun" "Toggle light theme" %}
+  </span>
+  <span class="dark">
+    {% tablericon "moon" "Toggle dark theme" %}
+  </span>
+</li>
+```
+{% endraw %}
+
+The `client-side` class above hides the button should the user have JavaScript disabled:
+
+```html
+<noscript>
+  <style>
+    .client-side {
+      display: none
+    }
+  </style>
+</noscript>
+```
+
+And JavaScript is used to control the behavior of the toggle:
+
+```javascript
+;(async function() {
+  const btn = document.querySelector('.theme__toggle');
+  const prefersDarkScheme = window.matchMedia('(prefers-color-scheme: dark)').matches; // check the user's OS appearance preference
+  const currentTheme = localStorage?.getItem('theme'); // check if a theme has been set
+  let theme;
+
+  if (!currentTheme) localStorage?.setItem('theme', (prefersDarkScheme ? 'dark' : 'light')) // if a theme hasn't been set, set one based on their OS preference
+
+  // set the body class based on the derived preferences above
+  if (currentTheme === 'dark') {
+    document.body.classList.toggle('theme__dark');
+  } else if (currentTheme === 'light') {
+    document.body.classList.toggle('theme__light');
+  } else if (prefersDarkScheme) {
+    document.body.classList.toggle('theme__dark');
+  } else if (!prefersDarkScheme) {
+    document.body.classList.toggle('theme__light');
+  }
+
+  // allow the user to toggle the theme by clicking the theme button
+  btn.addEventListener('click', () => {
+    document.body.classList.toggle('theme__light');
+    document.body.classList.toggle('theme__dark');
+
+    if (prefersDarkScheme) {
+      theme = document.body.classList.contains('theme__light') ? 'light' : 'dark';
+    } else {
+      theme = document.body.classList.contains('theme__dark') ? 'dark' : 'light';
+    }
+    localStorage?.setItem('theme', theme);
+  });
+})()
+```
+
+Finally, the theme is updated based on the body class applied by the JavaScript, updating the variable values that define my site's theme:
+
+```css
+/* theme toggle */
+.theme__toggle,
+.theme__toggle svg {
+  cursor: pointer;
+}
+
+.theme__toggle > .light svg { stroke: var(--sun) !important; }
+.theme__toggle > .dark svg { stroke: var(--moon) !important; }
+
+.theme__dark .theme__toggle > .light {
+  display: inline;
+}
+
+.theme__dark .theme__toggle > .dark {
+  display: none;
+}
+
+.theme__light .theme__toggle > .light {
+  display: none;
+}
+
+.theme__light .theme__toggle > .dark {
+  display: inline;
+}
+...
+:root body.theme__light {
+  --text-color: var(--color-darkest);
+  --background-color: var(--color-lightest);
+  --text-color-inverted: var(--color-lightest);
+  --background-color-inverted: var(--color-darkest);
+  --accent-color: var(--blue-600);
+  --accent-color-hover: var(--blue-800);
+  --selection-color: var(--accent-color);
+  --gray-light: var(--gray-200);
+  --gray-lighter: var(--gray-50);
+  --gray-dark: var(--gray-700);
+  --brand-github: #333;
+}
+
+:root body.theme__dark {
+  --text-color: var(--color-lightest);
+  --background-color: var(--color-darkest);
+  --text-color-inverted: var(--color-darkest);
+  --background-color-inverted: var(--color-lightest);
+  --accent-color: var(--blue-400);
+  --accent-color-hover: var(--blue-200);
+  --gray-light: var(--gray-900);
+  --gray-lighter: var(--gray-950);
+  --gray-dark: var(--gray-300);
+  --brand-github: #f5f5f5;
+}
+```
+
+With those changes in place, visitors can toggle whichever theme they'd prefer and their preference is persisted in `localStorage` should it be available.
