css dark mode Color Scheme

Some say that Dark Mode should be an MVP feature.
In this episode, we will allow users to toggle light and dark modes inside our app based on system preferences, or manually by clicking a button in our application.
For this example, we will not use any CSS framework to achieve this, just raw CSS and Rails cookie storage!
