9 years ago I started looking into this. On Windows there's a slightly different, but equally frustrating start of white background before the .dark class gets applied to the body of the app. Changing my Windows them to 'High Contrast' did not change this.
My initial thought is to add a rule for the body background color to start the same as the top nav & side bar.
Is it possible to reduce or remove the startup flicker. On the Mac I have Brackets 1.1.0-15558 with the Dark theme. When the app is opened, it opens with dark gray background, then switches to white background, finally loads the editor UI. All of this happens within a second but it's still a little unpleasant.
If nothing else, leaving the background dark gray before displaying the editor UI would be a much nicer UX.
