## What it is
Doxygen Awesome is a custom CSS theme that modernizes the visual appearance of Doxygen-generated HTML documentation. It requires no changes to Doxygen's HTML structure and offers extensive customization via CSS variables, including dark mode support.

## Use cases
- make doxygen html docs look modern
- add dark mode to doxygen documentation
- customize the styling of generated API docs
- improve mobile usability of doxygen output
- theme C++ project documentation
- apply a clean css theme to doxygen without changing html

## When to choose
- you generate documentation with Doxygen and want a modern look
- you need dark mode and CSS-variable customization for Doxygen output
- you want a drop-in theme that doesn't alter Doxygen's HTML structure

## When to avoid
- you don't use Doxygen for documentation generation
- you need a theme for Sphinx, MkDocs, or other doc generators
- you require a complete layout redesign rather than visual restyling
