Sync with localStorage

By default, localStorage sync will auto enable If you calling new Themes() with empty arguments.

const themes = new Themes()
// sync localStorage is enabled by default

If you passing init theme (like new Themes('dark')), the localStorage sync would be disable by default.

const themes = new Themes('dark')
// sync localStorage is disabled by default

You can switch on and off sync after init Themes by setting .sync.

themes.sync = true

Notice: after calling commit(), localStorage sync will auto set to enable, you can turn off the sync manuelly if needed.

themes.commit()
// themes.sync = true [auto]
