## What it is
LittleBigMouse is a desktop application that makes mouse movement across multiple monitors DPI-aware, letting the cursor travel seamlessly between screens of different sizes and resolutions. It provides a GUI for arranging monitor layouts with per-edge border resistance and runs a daemon on Windows and (experimentally) Linux.

## Use cases
- move mouse smoothly between monitors with different DPI
- align multi-monitor layout so cursor matches physical screen positions
- stop cursor getting stuck at monitor edges
- set resistance when dragging windows across screens
- manage multi-display mouse behavior on Linux
- fix cursor jumping between screens of different resolutions

## When to choose
- you use multiple monitors with mixed resolutions or DPI scaling
- you want a GUI to fine-tune how the cursor crosses screen boundaries
- you're on Windows or Arch Linux and want DPI-aware mouse movement

## When to avoid
- you have a single monitor
- you need display configuration itself (resolution, refresh rate) rather than mouse behavior
- you need a fully supported Linux solution outside Arch-based distros
