Hello Team,

Actually I want to create dark theme configuration for kendo react by overriding the classnames globally using scss. Suppose below is kendoDark.scss file where I am overriding input text box with background grey color.
@import "~@progress/kendo-theme-bootstrap/dist/all.scss";
.k-input {
  background:grey !important;
  color: $text-high-emphasis__dt;
}

So In App.js file I have state of dark or light theme like  const darkMode = useSelector((state) => state.darkMode); 
My problem is I am unable to import this kendoDark.scss file if it is dark theme.
Can you please share me any example.Please help me here.

Hi Sanket,

I can suggest checking out the following blogs that provide ideas on how to achieve the dynamic changing of themes:

You can also check out the following example on how to switch the theme using styled components:

The dynamic changing of themes can also be seen in our sample StackBlitz application:

Hope you find these resources helpful.
