How to Automate Dark Mode Toggling on Specific Tabs

Certain workflows require quick transitions; you may want a dark mode for research tabs but need light mode for a 3rd party design interface running in another tab.
You can automate this behavior by using the domain rules within Modern Dark Mode. By setting the main application to "Dark" but manually toggling the extension "Off" via the toolbar icon when on a specific design website, the extension will remember that preference forever. It essentially automates the toggling process, instantly rendering domains exactly how you prefer them every time you switch tabs.
