pages to enhance the user experience with a WYSIWYG markdown
editor. This change includes adding the necessary CSS and JS

Fixes #FLAS-29
This commit addresses the issue of incorrect dark mode icon
placement in the toggle button. Previously, the moon and sun
icons were displayed in the background, which was not the
desired behavior. The icons are now correctly placed inside
the circle of the toggle button.
Changes include:
- Updated CSS to center icons within the toggle button.
- Adjusted HTML to ensure the correct icon is displayed based
on the current theme.
- Modified JavaScript to toggle icons appropriately when
the theme changes.
These changes improve the visual consistency and user
experience of the dark mode toggle.
Fixes #FLAS-5
This commit addresses the issue of improper dark mode implementation.
The background of all pages and form elements in dark mode were
previously displayed in white, which has now been corrected. The
background for input and textarea elements is set to a darker shade
in dark mode, ensuring consistency with the overall theme.
Additionally, the toggle button for switching themes has been
redesigned to resemble iPhone-style toggles, replacing the previous
square button. This enhances the user interface and provides a more
intuitive experience when toggling between light and dark modes.
Fixes #FLAS-3
Implemented dark mode across all pages, allowing users to toggle
between light and dark themes. The default theme is determined by
the operating system or browser settings. A toggle button in the
navigation bar enables users to switch themes, using sun and moon
icons from Font Awesome. User preferences are stored in cookies
and local storage to ensure consistency across sessions and pages.
The changes include:
- Added a before_request function to load theme preference from
cookies or set a default based on user agent.
- Updated CSS to support dark mode styling.
- Modified base.html to include a theme toggle button and
corresponding JavaScript for theme switching.
