Dark mode I've been using the Dark Mode SSMS hack for years - this is so much nicer. Great work and looking forward to future enhancements. Thanks Michael!

Your eyes will thank you As others said before me, SSMS was the only remaining app developers use daily that was lacking proper dark theme and this solved that problem. No more strike of light when switching from dark windows. I really love this and huge thanks to a developer who made it free.

Stop waiting for M$ Finally, after 10+ years of waiting for Microsoft to implement a dark theme in SSMS I can stop using registry hacks of half implemented themes that don't really work. SQL Shades just works. I've been looking at replacements for SSMS as it's the only app I use that doesn't have a dark mode. Thinking about replacing all the muscle memory investment in SSMS has been daunting to say the least. SQL Shades makes SSMS look better than it ever has and makes it a lot easier to use. Thank you!

Every day... Every day, every day, I'm thankful for SQL Shades. It makes my multi-mega-monitor SSMS questions so much easier to abide for hours on end, which is my life. Thank you!

Full Dark Mode Finally SQL Shades works as expected, it is great. i look forward to the possible Pro version 😁
