+#### How the "Automatic Theme" works
-#### Enforce a theme and ignore `(prefers-color-scheme)`
+The main `water.css` file automatically switches between light and dark mode depending on the system preferences of a user's device. This detection is made possible through a CSS media query called [`prefers-color-scheme`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/@media/prefers-color-scheme). In browsers where the preference can't be detected, `water.css` will stick to the light theme.
-For the main `water.css` file, light is only treated as a _default theme_: if a user has a preference for either dark or light mode on their device, the stylesheet will respect this. This detection is made possible through a CSS media query called `prefers-color-scheme`. If you want to avoid this behavior and enforce a theme, use either `dark.css` or `light.css`.
+If you want to avoid this behavior, use either `dark.css` or `light.css`.
-#### Want to support Internet Explorer?
+#### Supporting Internet Explorer
All three distributions of Water.css support Internet Explorer 11, but the main `water.css` file **doesn't respect the user's color scheme** and will be locked to light mode due to lack of `prefers-color-scheme` support.
-Be aware that IE also doesn't support [runtime theming](#theming), and fixed fallback values will be used. If you want to override the Water.css theme, we recommend that you [compile your own theme](#compiling-your-own-theme).
