REAL Dark Mode! This is exactly what MSSMS has needed!
REAL Dark Mode!!!! This is exactly what MSSMS has been needing for SO long! Thank you, and well done on this product. The colors are great, and work so much better than the color hacks out there. I like the fact that this affects all the MS panes within MSSQL. Great job!

Eye Saver!
You sir, are an EYE SAVER. Why in God's name MS hasn't yet implemented a dark mode for SQL is totally beyond me. Thank you SO much for taking the time to develop this. The days of having blood pour out my eyes is over!
