I don't want dark mode is there a way to disable dark mode? Also what is the best way to just keep a white background and not a surface color?

@scottandrew Dark Mode is not a feature specific to Skeleton, it's just using Tailwind's underlying system for this. You can learn more about it here:
https://tailwindcss.com/docs/dark-mode

To answer your question, I recommend the following:

In your tailwind.config.cjs set darkMode: "class" per our installation recommendation. This won't enable dark mode, it simply edits the way it functions.
Open /src/app.html and ensure the .dark class is NOT applied to the <html> element at the top
Open /src/app.postcss and edit your HTML or Body element styles as you would with any other web app, such as:

html { background: white; }
