How can I change to a black background color?

Hi there, I just signed up and started right away to practice a little in the workspace. But I can´t seem to find any option to change the background of the script and console blocks to black. My eyes can´t the take the incandescent white and I am sure a lot people encounter the same issue.

I don't believe there is an option to change the background color. However, if you have access to a text editor you might find that working with Visual Studio Code or Atom as a better alternative to the bright white color of workspaces

Unfortunately, we don't have any cosmetic options available for Workspaces at this time. Thankfully, it is something we're looking into rolling out in the future!

It would be a great thing to develop for those with visual impairments. I would love to help!
