# Dark mode and light mode

Every app, website or computer system that we work with on a daily basis uses the most common user interface style, the so called **light mode**. But more and more, a new mode known as **dark mode** is being promoted.

## What is dark mode and light mode?

**Dark mode** is a way of displaying an application or web page on the screen of different devices with **white text on a dark background**. The traditional way, **light mode**, is the opposite: **dark text is displayed on a light background**.

Several factors can influence the choice between dark mode and light mode. Things like each person's **vision**, the **work environment**, the **different devices** or the **interface design** lead each user to choose one mode or the other.

**It's up to you to choose** the mode you feel more comfortable working in and that causes less **eyestrain**.

We have added the **dark mode and light mode feature** to the TuCalendi interface so you can select the one that suits you best. **Switching between light and dark mode is very easy**.

After [logging in with your TuCalendi](https://account.tucalendi.com/login) username and password, you will access the **dashboard**.

At the top right of the screen you will find the following options:

> [!TIP]
> By default, **light mode** is activated.

Simply **turn on dark mode** and the TuCalendi interface will look like this:

Now you are the one who decides how TuCalendi is displayed.
