Best Practices

Language

Set to your most comfortable language
Consistency with your work language
Consider what you’ll type most often

Theme

Match your environment lighting
Use System for automatic switching
Dark mode for extended use

If you work in different lighting conditions throughout the day, “System” theme is ideal as it automatically adjusts.
