Christian Ivicevic cf4ccb34e2 docs(www): mention to add suppressHydrationWarning in the dark mode docs for next (#5879)
Users have repeatedly run into hydration errors because they don't read the next-themes readme and don't pay attention to the shadcn/ui docs and miss that the `suppressHydrationWarning` prop must be added.

This commit mentions this explicitly and highlights the line in the snippet (as well as fixing the previously wrong highlighting).

## Dark mode
<Steps>
### Install next-themes
Start by installing `next-themes`:
```bash
npm install next-themes
```
### Create a theme provider
```tsx title="components/theme-provider.tsx"
"use client"
import * as React from "react"
import { ThemeProvider as NextThemesProvider } from "next-themes"
export function ThemeProvider({
children,
...props
}: React.ComponentProps<typeof NextThemesProvider>) {
return <NextThemesProvider {...props}>{children}</NextThemesProvider>
}
```
### Wrap your root layout
Add the `ThemeProvider` to your root layout and add the `suppressHydrationWarning` prop to the `html` tag.
```tsx {1,6,9-14,16} title="app/layout.tsx"
import { ThemeProvider } from "@/components/theme-provider"
export default function RootLayout({ children }: RootLayoutProps) {
return (
<>
<html lang="en" suppressHydrationWarning>
<head />
<body>
<ThemeProvider
attribute="class"
defaultTheme="system"
enableSystem
disableTransitionOnChange
>
{children}
</ThemeProvider>
</body>
</html>
</>
)
}
```
### Add a mode toggle
Place a mode toggle on your site to toggle between light and dark mode.
<ComponentPreview name="mode-toggle" className="[&_.preview]:items-start" />
</Steps>
