🔧 Technical Details
Theme Loading Mechanism
// Redux action triggers theme change
const loadBootswatchTheme = (theme: BootswatchTheme) => {
if (typeof document !== "undefined") {
// Remove existing Bootswatch CSS
const existingLink = document.getElementById("bootswatch-theme");
if (existingLink) existingLink.remove();
// Load new theme from CDN (if not default Aurora)
if (theme !== "default") {
const link = document.createElement("link");
link.id = "bootswatch-theme";
link.href = `https://bootswatch.com/5/${theme}/bootstrap.min.css`;
document.head.appendChild(link);
}
}
};
Persistence Pattern
// User selects theme
const handleBootswatchChange = async (theme: BootswatchTheme) => {
// Update Redux state
dispatch(setBootswatchTheme(theme));
// Persist to localStorage via service
await userPreferenceService.setBootswatchTheme(theme);
// CSS auto-loads from Redux thunk
dispatch(loadBootswatchTheme(theme));
};
Singleton Service Export
// At end of UserPreferenceService.ts
export const userPreferenceService = UserPreferenceService.getInstance();
// Usage in ThemeToggle
import { userPreferenceService } from "../../services/UserPreferenceService";
await userPreferenceService.setBootswatchTheme(selectedTheme);
