Day 66. Theme switcher

What I did:

Today, I continued working on the theme switcher in the application. I focused on implementing the logic of switching themes inside the application. The user can do this manually. If the user at least once turned on or off dark theme, the application will follow only application's state of the switcher. Changing themes in the system settings no longer has any effect.

 To completely cover this case, I have to add a checkbox. I will add it tomorrow. After this, all cases with theme switching will be covered. I think the set of my commits is a good example of how anyone can solve this problem for the KMM project. As I wrote before, it is a good topic for an article, which I would like to write more and more about. At the same time, it is also a good problem to solve as a small, standalone KMM library. 

What I will do:

If you want to join the project, just leave a comment here, or write a message in LinkedIn.

What help I'm looking for:

Designer (create design of application in Figma)
Android/KMM developer
Any other help related to the project.
