Description:
Hello

Could you please add to workbench a dark theme? Almost all developer tools has ability to use dark themes.

See, if Workbench is opened from time to time its fine to have white theme. But when it comes to daily work with it eyes got tired from white.

See, most IDEs of developers has black background and if its possible in Workbench it would be great.

How to repeat:
This is a feature request.

This makes workbench unusable if I want to have the dark theme of MacOS. Looking at alternatives until this is fixed.

Hello

Dark theme is really a good staff. If you can enable creating and downloading schemes for your Workbench, it would be really nice. See as it is done in Visual Studio Code.

Thanks

This is the UI when 'Dark Mode' on Mac OS is enabled. This looks like a bug, not a feature as some text is unreadable

I concur. Please add a dark theme for Windows to MySQL WB :)
