• 🌞 **Full Theme System**: Because apparently some people prefer cooking with their retinas burning
  • **Auto Mode**: Follows your system preference (for the indecisive among us)
  • **Dark Mode**: The superior choice, as nature intended
  • **Light Mode**: For vampires who want to feel mortal again
  • All theme preferences sync across devices via Supabase - your questionable choices follow you everywhere!

  • Clean radio button interface for theme selection
  • Accessibility section with high contrast toggle
  • Settings persist locally AND in the cloud (because consistency matters, unlike your theme choices)
  • Streamlined profile page with better headings and cleaner recipe personalization guidance
• 🧮 **Backwards Compatible**: Existing users won't notice a thing (unless they venture into settings and discover the light side)
  • Defaults to "Auto" mode for new users (so light mode people get blinded immediately upon first login)
  • Seamless migration from localStorage to Supabase
  • No disruption to your carefully curated dark mode experience (if your system agrees with good taste)

P.S. - Dark mode users can rest easy knowing their superior taste is respected by the Auto mode. Light mode users... well, you asked for this. 🌚
