Moreover, changes will be applied not only to Mac OS items, but also to programs that support such design, for example, you will see changes in Google Chrome and Safari browsers.
There are also third-party programs for managing a dark theme: for example, the NIGHTOWL application allows you to include it depending on the time of day, and the Dark Switch program adds the speed switching button between the dark and the light mode into the menu bar.
Additional Information
In addition to the dark mode, Mac OS has a built-in "Night SHIFT" function, which changes the color temperature of the screen, making colors more "warm", which should reduce the negative effect of cold shades on the eyes and the ability to fall asleep after working at the computer in the evening. You can enable the function in the system settings in the "Monitors" section by opening the "Night SHIFT" tab.
The settings allow you to set both the user's inclusion of Night SHIFT and automatic - "from sunset to dawn".
