Guide for theming .NET MAUI apps — light/dark mode via AppThemeBinding, ResourceDictionary theme switching, DynamicResource bindings, system theme detection, and user theme preferences. Use when: "dark mode", "light mode", "theming", "AppThemeBinding", "theme switching", "ResourceDictionary theme", "dynamic resources", "system theme detection", "color scheme", "app theme", "DynamicResource". Do not use for: localization or language switching (see .NET MAUI localization documentation), accessibility visual adjustments (see .NET MAUI accessibility documentation), app icons or splash screens (see .NET MAUI app icons documentation), or Bootstrap-style class theming (see Plugin.Maui.BootstrapTheme NuGet package).
