How To Enable Dark Mode On Google Chrome For Computers

First of all, some might ask, what is Dark Mode and why is it useful? Dark mode is where a web browser changes the default page background from white to a dark grey or shade of black. The purpose of this is to conserve battery life of all mobile devices such as Smart Phones, Tablets, and Laptop computers while browsing the web. The extra energy needed to emit white light, is no longer needed and extends the time you can use your mobile device.

Here's how to enable it in Google Chrome on a computer.
1.) Open your Google Chrome browser.
2.) copy and paste this text into the URL bar and press enter: chrome://flags/#enable-force-dark
3.) It will open a settings page with a warning. You only need to change the very first option.
     - under "Force Dark Mode for Web Content" click on the drop-down menu to the right, and choose "Enabled".
4.) Leave all other settings untouched.
5.) To undo Dark Mode, just return to that page by using Step 2, and choose "Disabled" the next time.
