Why Knight Don

🌙

Every site, instantly dark

One toggle darkens the whole web — even sites that never built a dark mode of their own.

🎚️

Tune it your way

Brightness, contrast and sepia sliders let you dial in a look that's easy on your eyes.

🎯

Per-site control

Love a site's own dark theme? Flip Knight Don off for just that site in one tap.

🔒

Private by design

Everything runs in your browser. No accounts, no tracking, nothing uploaded.

Install in about a minute

Download & unzip. Grab the Knight Don .zip and unzip it somewhere you'll keep it.
Open the extensions page. Go to chrome://extensions in your address bar.
Turn on Developer mode. Use the switch in the top-right corner.
Load unpacked. Click Load unpacked and pick the unzipped knight-don folder.
Pin the moon. Click the lime moon icon and enjoy the dark. 🌙
Heads-up: loading unpacked is the normal way to run an extension before it's published to the Chrome Web Store. Works the same in Edge and Brave. When you're ready, the same folder can be published to the store.

Questions

Does it work on every website?

Knight Don darkens virtually any page by inverting its colours while keeping photos and videos looking normal. A few sites with heavy custom layouts may look slightly off — flip the per-site switch and they'll go back to normal instantly.

Is any of my browsing sent anywhere?

No. Knight Don has no servers and no account. It only stores your settings locally in your browser, and it never sends your pages or history anywhere.

Why "Load unpacked" instead of a store button?

This is the direct-install version you can use today. Loading an unpacked extension is Chrome's built-in way to run one from a folder. The exact same files can be submitted to the Chrome Web Store later for a one-click install.

Can I keep a site's own dark theme?

Yes. Open Knight Don on that site and turn off "On this site" — Knight Don steps aside there and stays on everywhere else.

Does it slow pages down?

It applies a lightweight CSS filter, so the impact is tiny. If a particular site feels heavy, the per-site toggle turns it off there.
