## What it is
ModernFlyouts is an open-source Windows application that replaces the built-in Metro-themed audio, brightness, airplane mode, and lock key flyouts with modern Fluent Design versions. It offers additional features and customization beyond the default flyouts on both Windows 10 and Windows 11.

## Use cases
- replace the old Windows volume and media flyout with a modern design
- customize the appearance of audio flyouts in Windows 10
- get a nicer brightness and airplane mode indicator overlay
- hide the default Windows flyouts and use a Fluent Design alternative
- add extra features to Windows 11 flyouts like media info display
- show caps lock and num lock indicators on screen

## When to choose
- you want a modern, customizable replacement for Windows' dated flyouts
- you're on Windows 10 and want flyouts that match Fluent Design
- you want richer media information in the audio flyout
- you want the option to disable flyouts entirely

## When to avoid
- you're happy with the built-in Windows 11 flyouts
- you need a flyout for keyboard backlight or Fn key (hardware signals, not supported)
- you don't want a background app running to override system UI
