## What it is
Monitorian is a Windows desktop application for adjusting the brightness of multiple monitors, including external DDC/CI-enabled displays, individually or in unison. It also allows adjusting the brightness and contrast range per monitor and shows ambient-light-sensor-adjusted brightness.

## Use cases
- adjust brightness of multiple monitors from one place
- control external monitor brightness via DDC/CI
- change brightness of all monitors in unison
- set custom adjustable brightness range per monitor
- adjust monitor contrast from Windows
- view ambient light sensor brightness alongside configured brightness

## When to choose
- you use Windows with multiple monitors, including external DDC/CI displays
- you want a simple tray-based tool to sync monitor brightness
- you need per-monitor brightness/contrast range tuning

## When to avoid
- you are on macOS or Linux
- your external monitor does not support DDC/CI
- you need advanced color calibration or ICC profile management
