Fantastic little addon that immediately feels like a natural part of SSMS.

Love it! I spent a while using SSMS with a half-baked dark theme after "hacking" one of the config files to enable the dark theme in the options. But it was definitely not what it should have been. SQL Shades saved the day (and every day thereafter) with it's beautiful and comprehensive dark mode. I cannot work without it!

Shades Dark theme is a fundamental piece for SSMS that MS is neglecting.

This is a great piece of SSMS software and everyday my eyes thank me for downloading and installing it. I spend hours a day in SSMS, and being able to use a dark theme in every window is a amazing.

Such awesomeness! Just raw awesomeness! SSMS team should hire you right away and give you a fat pay for doing something that they haven't been able to deliver for ages!

I highly recommend SQL Shades. It's a simple thing: provide a DARK THEME for SSMS, which it does very well.

SQL Shades is the best "really the only true" solution for using Dark Mode in Microsoft SSMS. I've been developing professionally with SSMS for over 11+ years. I've had to use "hacks" to get a broken dark mode. This is the fix I've been waiting on Microsoft to give us for a long time.

its great, very useful, should be native
