The plugin adds a dark-mode class to the admin body when active, and provides three filters for customization:

• add_filter( 'dark_mode_dashboard_css', 'your_stylesheet_url' ) — replace the plugin’s admin stylesheet with your own. This swaps the whole file rather than adding to it, so your stylesheet has to cover everything the plugin’s does, and it does not affect the post editor’s content area. To add a few rules of your own instead, enqueue a second stylesheet — see the FAQ
• add_filter( 'dark_mode_dashboard_default_preference', function() { return 'disabled'; } ) — change the default mode for new users
• add_filter( 'dark_mode_dashboard_editor_canvas', '__return_false' ) — disable dark mode for the editor content area
