Trying to create a Toggle to switch from dark mode to light mode has been quite difficult for me in v5.
Using the code directly from MUI Sandbox MUI darkmode, I attempted to separate the code to work in the app.js and my Navbarpractice.js.
App.js
import React from "react";
import useMediaQuery from '@mui/material/useMediaQuery';
import { createTheme, ThemeProvider } from '@mui/material/styles';
import CssBaseline from '@mui/material/CssBaseline';
import { Paper } from "@mui/material";
import BasicCard from "./components /Card.js";
import Navbarpractice from "./components /Navbar/Navbarpractice"
const ColorModeContext = React.createContext({ toggleColorMode: () => {} });
function App() {
const [mode, setMode] = React.useState('light');
const colorMode = React.useMemo(
() => ({
toggleColorMode: () => {
setMode((prevMode) => (prevMode === 'light' ? 'dark' : 'light'));
},
}),
[],
);
const theme = React.useMemo(
() =>
createTheme({
palette: {
mode,
},
}),
[mode],
);
return (
<ColorModeContext.Provider value={colorMode}>
<ThemeProvider theme={theme}>
<div className="App">
<Navbarpractice/>
<BasicCard/>
</div>
</ThemeProvider>
</ColorModeContext.Provider>
);
}
export default App;
Navbarpractice.js
import React from 'react';
import AppBar from '@mui/material/AppBar';
import Box from '@mui/material/Box';
import Toolbar from '@mui/material/Toolbar';
import Typography from '@mui/material/Typography';
import Button from '@mui/material/Button';
import IconButton from '@mui/material/IconButton';
import MenuIcon from '@mui/icons-material/Menu';
import { useTheme, ThemeProvider, createTheme } from '@mui/material/styles';
import { teal } from '@mui/material/colors';
import { withStyles } from '@mui/styles';
import { Switch } from '@mui/material';
import Brightness4Icon from '@mui/icons-material/Brightness4';
import Brightness7Icon from '@mui/icons-material/Brightness7';
const label = { inputProps: { 'aria-label': 'Switch' } };
const ColorModeContext = React.createContext({ toggleColorMode: () => {} });
const theme = createTheme({
Navbar: {
primary: {
// Purple and green play nicely together.
main: teal[500],
},
secondary: {
// This is green.A700 as hex.
main: '#11cb5f',
},
},
});
const TealTextTypography = withStyles({
root: {
color: "#008080"
}
})(Typography);
function Navbar() {
const theme = useTheme();
const colorMode = React.useContext(ColorModeContext);
return (
<ColorModeContext.Provider value={colorMode}>
<ThemeProvider theme={theme}>\
<Box sx={{ flexGrow: 1 }}>
<AppBar position="static"
style={{ background: 'transparent', boxShadow: 'none'}}>
<Toolbar>
<IconButton
size="large"
edge="start"
aria-label="menu"
sx={{ mr: 2 }}
>
<MenuIcon />
</IconButton>
<TealTextTypography variant="h6" component="div" sx={{ flexGrow: 1 }}>
Mentors
</TealTextTypography>
<TealTextTypography variant="h6" component="div" sx={{ flexGrow: 1 }}>
Mentees
</TealTextTypography>
<Box
sx={{
display: 'flex',
width: '100%',
alignItems: 'center',
justifyContent: 'center',
bgcolor: 'background.default',
color: 'text.primary',
borderRadius: 1,
p: 3,
}}
>
<IconButton sx={{ ml: 1 }} onClick={colorMode.toggleColorMode} color="inherit">
{ theme.palette.mode === 'dark' ? <Brightness7Icon /> : <Brightness4Icon />}
</IconButton>
</Box>
</Toolbar>
</AppBar>
</Box>
</ThemeProvider>
</ColorModeContext.Provider>
);
}
export default Navbar;
I am certain I am mixing up my const. and placing them in the wrong places. Although I am new to react and Mui I did manage to get it to work statically, however, the toggle is proving to be difficult.
This seem to work for me

import { ColorModeContext } from 'config/color-context';
export default function App() {
const prefersDarkMode = useMediaQuery('(prefers-color-scheme: dark)');
const [mode, setMode] = React.useState();
React.useEffect(() => {
setMode(prefersDarkMode ? 'dark' : 'light');
}, [prefersDarkMode]);
const colorMode = React.useMemo(
() => ({
toggleColorMode: () => {
setMode((prevMode) => (prevMode === 'light' ? 'dark' : 'light'));
},
}),
[]
);
let theme = React.useMemo(
() =>
createTheme(deepmerge(getDesignTokens(mode), getThemedComponents(mode))),
[mode]
);
theme = responsiveFontSizes(theme);
return (
