I want to change the background colour for MaterialCardView using the style.xml file. It would really help with implementing "Dark mode"in my Android app.



I have tried dynamically doing but would prefer this done using the theme.

          Widget.MaterialComponents.CardView can be styled just alike any other component:



          <style name="CustomCardView" parent="Widget.MaterialComponents.CardView">
          <item name="cardBackgroundColor">?attr/colorSurface</item>
          </style>


          Changing colorSurface, which defaults to #FFFFFF, might be rather effective for a dark theme.



          see the documentation, which also explains how to apply it to all instances.
