About phpMyAdmin Dark Mode
phpMyAdmin Dark Mode applies a comfortable dark theme to phpMyAdmin, so you can work with your databases without eye strain.
✓ Works on phpMyAdmin 5.x and 6.x — regardless of the selected theme
(pmahomme, bootstrap, metro, original)
✓ Always on — no setup, no toggle. Open phpMyAdmin, it's dark.
✓ Smart detection — only activates on phpMyAdmin pages; other sites are untouched.
✓ Covers every part of the UI: the navigation tree, table grids, the SQL
editor (CodeMirror), the SQL console, modals, dialogs, alerts, and the
database designer.
✓ No data collection, no analytics, no remote code. 100% local.
✓ Open source.
The theme is a CSS override layered on top of phpMyAdmin's own styles, so it
coexists with any theme and updates gracefully.
How it works:
- A content script detects phpMyAdmin from the URL and DOM, and only then
enables the dark theme.
- All overrides are scoped to a single CSS class, so non-phpMyAdmin pages
see zero visual change.
- A palette of CSS variables at the top of the stylesheet makes it easy to
re-skin (see the source repository).
