Forked an extension and renamed everything to toggle between yaru and yaru-dark:
https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/2153/yaru-dark-theme-toggle/
Hope that my gnome shell js improves so it just looks up the current light theme using and then switches to the corresponding -dark theme
Currently it only works for yaru / yaru-dark

Used it on my test install works great. Is there going to be option to have dark header bars but light window color, like Yaru in 19.04?

Its interesting that you see the numbers in the calculator.

The calculator is working fine. It’s only problem with theme. The header shall be light not dark.
The Calculator is working OK, on my desktop, on an old Asus laptop and on Boxes

What I meant was the colour and contrast of numbers. They are so dull, and theme is dull.
There will be three variants in 19.10, full light, full dark and the one with dark headerbars only

Saw that in GNOME Tweaks yesterday!

Now that the ‘darker’ version of Yaru is back (so light windows with dark headers, i.e. normal Yaru), it seems that it toggles between ‘darker’ and ‘dark’. Which works very well for me. Do wonder if this means that the toggle should have three steps and/or a setting to choose between which two versions it toggles.
You guys are awesome, thank you for keeping all three options, I know it was announced from the very beginning that darker will eventually be reintroduced, but I wasn’t expecting it to happen that soon, thanks a lot!

Wow! That’s great news! Congratulations!
Yaru to me has just become feature complete and on par again with Ambiance and Radiance days. 
BTW I will be using the light theme 
PS: Is this also an upstream change in Adwaita, or is Yaru ahead?

Will this toggle be available as an extension or an option in GNOME Setting?
Thank you!
This is just Yaru (downstream) change.
This is an extension

Ah cool, and thank you guys for the wonderful work. If I may, one thing that is a big confusion with the new shell theme is the login. The input box for password is too similar in the color of the background and the “Cancel” button, in its current color, does not have much of a significance, as red color would.

Agreed — The team has done a great job on Yaru! I’m actually using the default Ubuntu session now-a-days over ,the vanilla experience before.

Most of the time I am “dark mode” guy but I really do love the light theme. But all three options look great. Kudos to everybody who worked on Yaru.

The lighter (more grayish) field right next to the Home button, up to the search button, looks horrible. It also makes the user to think it is an input field which he can click. Why it is even there when it doesn’t work?

I don’t mind it, it helps distinguish from the active window from the top gnome-shell bar. It does become active once one clicks on the search icon.
