Hi @obelisk291. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- To modify the Pixels-Admin application to support dark mode, you can follow these steps: 1. Initialize the Pixels-Admin Project: If you haven't already set up the Pixels-Admin project, you can do so by running:

   npm create refine-app@latest -- --example pixels-admin

   npm create refine-app@latest -- --example pixels-admin

2. Replace ColorModeContextProvider with ConfigProvider: According to the Adding required files (https://refine.dev/blog/refine-pixels-5/#adding-required-files) section, you need to replace ColorModeContextProvider with ConfigProvider in your App.tsx file. This step is crucial as it sets up the configuration for Ant Design, which includes theming options. 3. Modify App.tsx for Dark Mode: You need to configure the ConfigProvider to use the dark theme. Here is an example of how you can modify your App.tsx file to support dark mode:

   import {  
     Authenticated,  
     CanAccess,  
     GitHubBanner,  
     Refine,  
   } from "@refinedev/core";  
   import {  
     ErrorComponent,  
     ThemedLayoutV2,  
     useNotificationProvider,  
   } from "@refinedev/antd";  
   import { ConfigProvider } from "antd";  
   import { dataProvider, liveProvider } from "@refinedev/supabase";  
   import routerBindings, {  
     NavigateToResource,  
     UnsavedChangesNotifier,  
     DocumentTitleHandler,  
   } from "@refinedev/react-router-v6";  
   import { BrowserRouter, Routes, Route, Outlet } from "react-router-dom";
const App = () => {
     return (
       <ConfigProvider theme={{ mode: 'dark' }}>
         <BrowserRouter>
           <Refine
             dataProvider={dataProvider}
             liveProvider={liveProvider}
             routerProvider={routerBindings}
             notificationProvider={useNotificationProvider()}
             Layout={ThemedLayoutV2}
             catchAll={<ErrorComponent />}
           >
             <Routes>
               <Route path="/" element={<NavigateToResource resource="dashboard" />} />
               <Route path="*" element={<Outlet />} />
             </Routes>
             <UnsavedChangesNotifier />
             <DocumentTitleHandler />
           </Refine>
         </BrowserRouter>
       </ConfigProvider>
     );
   };

   export default App;

   import {  
     Authenticated,  
     CanAccess,  
     GitHubBanner,  
     Refine,  
   } from "@refinedev/core";  
   import {  
     ErrorComponent,  
     ThemedLayoutV2,  
     useNotificationProvider,  
   } from "@refinedev/antd";  
   import { ConfigProvider } from "antd";  
   import { dataProvider, liveProvider } from "@refinedev/supabase";  
   import routerBindings, {  
     NavigateToResource,  
     UnsavedChangesNotifier,  
     DocumentTitleHandler,  
   } from "@refinedev/react-router-v6";  
   import { BrowserRouter, Routes, Route, Outlet } from "react-router-dom";
const App = () => {
     return (
       <ConfigProvider theme={{ mode: 'dark' }}>
         <BrowserRouter>
           <Refine
             dataProvider={dataProvider}
             liveProvider={liveProvider}
             routerProvider={routerBindings}
             notificationProvider={useNotificationProvider()}
             Layout={ThemedLayoutV2}
             catchAll={<ErrorComponent />}
           >
             <Routes>
               <Route path="/" element={<NavigateToResource resource="dashboard" />} />
               <Route path="*" element={<Outlet />} />
             </Routes>
             <UnsavedChangesNotifier />
             <DocumentTitleHandler />
           </Refine>
         </BrowserRouter>
       </ConfigProvider>
     );
   };

   export default App;

4. Run the Development Server: After making the necessary changes, navigate to your project folder and run the development server:

   npm run dev

   npm run dev

By following these steps, you should be able to enable dark mode in your Pixels-Admin application. For more detailed information, you can refer to the Refine documentation on theming (https://refine.dev/docs/ui-integrations/ant-design/theming/#switching-to-dark-theme). If you encounter any issues or need further customization, you can always refer to the source code on GitHub (https://github.com/refinedev/refine/tree/master/examples/pixels-admin) for additional guidance. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai Object literal may only specify known properties, and 'mode' does not exist in type 'ThemeConfig'.ts(2353)

Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books: ---------------------- The error message "Object literal may only specify known properties, and 'mode' does not exist in type 'ThemeConfig'.ts(2353)" indicates that you are trying to set a property (mode) that is not recognized by the ThemeConfig type in your TypeScript configuration. To resolve this issue, you need to ensure that the mode property is correctly defined in the type you are using. Here’s how you can address this: 1. Check the Type Definition: Ensure that the ThemeConfig type includes the mode property. If it doesn't, you need to extend or modify the type to include it. 2. Modify the Type Definition: If you are using a type from a library and it doesn't include the mode property, you can extend the type to include it. Here’s an example of how you can do this:

   import { ConfigProviderProps } from 'antd';

   interface CustomThemeConfig extends ConfigProviderProps {
     mode?: 'dark' | 'light';
   }

   const themeConfig: CustomThemeConfig = {
     mode: 'dark',
     // other properties
   };

   import { ConfigProviderProps } from 'antd';

   interface CustomThemeConfig extends ConfigProviderProps {
     mode?: 'dark' | 'light';
   }

   const themeConfig: CustomThemeConfig = {
     mode: 'dark',
     // other properties
   };

3. Update Your Configuration: Use the extended type in your configuration to avoid the TypeScript error. Here’s an example of how you can update your App.tsx file:

   import { ConfigProvider } from "antd";
   import { Refine } from "@refinedev/core";
   import { ThemedLayoutV2, ErrorComponent, useNotificationProvider } from "@refinedev/antd";
   import { BrowserRouter, Routes, Route, Outlet } from "react-router-dom";
   import dataProvider from "@refinedev/simple-rest";
   import routerProvider from "@refinedev/react-router-v6";
const App = () => {
     return (
       <ConfigProvider theme={{ mode: 'dark' }}>
         <BrowserRouter>
           <Refine
             dataProvider={dataProvider("<https://api.fake-rest.refine.dev">)}
             routerProvider={routerProvider}
             notificationProvider={useNotificationProvider()}
             Layout={ThemedLayoutV2}
             catchAll={<ErrorComponent />}
           >
             <Routes>
               <Route path="/" element={<NavigateToResource resource="dashboard" />} />
               <Route path="*" element={<Outlet />} />
             </Routes>
           </Refine>
         </BrowserRouter>
       </ConfigProvider>
     );
   };

   export default App;

   import { ConfigProvider } from "antd";
   import { Refine } from "@refinedev/core";
   import { ThemedLayoutV2, ErrorComponent, useNotificationProvider } from "@refinedev/antd";
   import { BrowserRouter, Routes, Route, Outlet } from "react-router-dom";
   import dataProvider from "@refinedev/simple-rest";
   import routerProvider from "@refinedev/react-router-v6";
const App = () => {
     return (
       <ConfigProvider theme={{ mode: 'dark' }}>
         <BrowserRouter>
           <Refine
             dataProvider={dataProvider("<https://api.fake-rest.refine.dev">)}
             routerProvider={routerProvider}
             notificationProvider={useNotificationProvider()}
             Layout={ThemedLayoutV2}
             catchAll={<ErrorComponent />}
           >
             <Routes>
               <Route path="/" element={<NavigateToResource resource="dashboard" />} />
               <Route path="*" element={<Outlet />} />
             </Routes>
           </Refine>
         </BrowserRouter>
       </ConfigProvider>
     );
   };

   export default App;

By extending the type to include the mode property, you can avoid the TypeScript error and successfully configure the dark mode in your application. For more information on theming and configuration, you can refer to the Refine documentation on theming (https://refine.dev/docs/ui-integrations/ant-design/theming/#switching-to-dark-theme). ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
