Introducing Dark Mode for Pulumi Cloud

Posted on

Pulumi Cloud helps teams manage and operate their cloud infrastructure in one place, from state and secrets to deployments, visibility, and policy enforcement.

For a long time, one request has consistently come up from the Pulumi community: dark mode. Today, we’re announcing that this request is now available in Pulumi Cloud.

Light mode and dark mode

Pulumi Cloud supports light mode and dark mode. You can switch themes at any time from the utility bar.

Light mode remains the default experience. Dark mode uses lighter text and UI elements on a darker background, which many users prefer for extended sessions or low-light environments.

This update is enabled by recent work from our User Experience team to introduce a shared design system across Pulumi Cloud. With that foundation in place, theming can now be applied consistently across pages and features.

Dark mode allows you to opt into a theme that uses lighter text and graphics on a darker background. You can also choose to keep the current theme, now known as light mode.

How to enable dark mode

You can update your theme from the utility bar at any time.
