The Lightning Extension, developed by the Lightning Product Management team at Salesforce, is a powerful Chrome extension that offers a wide range of features to complement your Salesforce experience. With continuous productivity feature releases, this extension provides end users with rich enhancements and added functionality that are not available out-of-the-box with Lightning.
Unlocking New Capabilities
One of the standout features of the Lightning Extension is Dark Mode, which offers a sleek and visually appealing interface. However, it's important to note that Dark Mode is temporarily disabled at the moment. The team is actively working on bringing it back to ensure a seamless experience for all users.
Customize Your Experience
Admins have the ability to control access to the Lightning Extension and its individual features. By navigating to Setup and searching for "Lightning Extension" in the Quick Find box, admins can easily manage user access to specific features or the extension as a whole. Please keep in mind that changes to access settings may take up to 24 hours to take effect.

Please bring back Dark Mode for SFDC Lightning
I really like this plugin and rolled it out to our Salesforce users so that they don't have multiple tabs of Salesforce open, which is great with Lightning Sales Console. I wish Dark Mode would be made available. We have had no issues with Link Grabber.
1. Link grabber sporadically stops working then starts working again for no apparent reason. 2. Put some effort into this people. Last release was 10 month ago and dark mode still unavailable. Our company is bailing on Lightning and writing their own GUI.
