A clean, minimalistic administration theme inspired from the new customizer look of wordpress 3.4.1 
It’s pretty basic and adds a css file to your administration.
Since this plugin was created I have used the knowledge that I have acquired to build the bootstrap admin theme, which I would recomend you use instead of this one. 
You can get it here: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bootstrap-admin/
This project was built for the http://magazi.org network of stores.

Dark Mode for WP Dashboard

Works perfectly! After trying another dark mode plugin that was recommended by the WP Beginner blog, which worked terribly and had a lot of misleading features, this one was a relief.

This is the one to install

If you want your dashboard in Dark Mode and nothing else, this is the plugin you want to use. No fancy stuff, just a small PHP file that loads a CSS file.

That's all you really need, don't you?

Small, simple, and effective


Works great. So much nicer on the eyes.


Perfect

A clean, lightweight dark mode for the WordPress admin dashboard.
