How can I programmatically access Dark mode colors when in light mode and vice versa in SwiftUI?

An accentColor can have an "Any Appearance" color and a "Dark Appearance" color. Lets say, I'm in light mode, how can I access the dark mode color programmatically without manually setting the color mode to dark mode?

You need to resolve your named color to trait collection of dark style, like

.background(
   Color(UIColor(named: "testColor")?.resolvedColor(with: 
      UITraitCollection(userInterfaceStyle: .dark)) ?? UIColor.darkText)
)

Tested with Xcode 12.4 / iOS 14.4

Note: tune to your color name and any default color to unwrap optional
