## What it is
A complete, preconfigured BSPWM desktop environment for Arch Linux distributed as dotfiles, featuring 18 handcrafted themes with an on-the-fly theme selector. The modular theming system propagates consistent color palettes across the window manager, GTK, terminals, Polybar, Rofi, Neovim, Firefox, and many other applications.

## Use cases
- set up a bspwm desktop environment on arch linux
- rice my linux desktop with polybar and rofi
- switch window manager themes on the fly
- find ready-made dotfiles for bspwm
- customize my linux desktop with multiple color themes
- get a lightweight tiling window manager setup
- make alacritty, rofi, and polybar share the same color scheme

## When to choose
- you use Arch Linux or a similar distro and want a full bspwm environment without manual configuration
- you want multiple polished, consistent themes you can switch instantly
- you want a complete setup including polybar, rofi, picom, and terminal configs out of the box

## When to avoid
- you use Windows, macOS, or a non-X11 desktop environment
- you prefer to configure your window manager and tools entirely from scratch
- you want automatic color extraction from wallpapers (this uses handcrafted palettes instead)
