+# nyxwm - Nyx Window Manager
+
+nyxwm is a simple, lightweight X window manager forked from [sowm](https://github.com/dylanaraps/sowm) and incorporating features from [dwmblocks](https://github.com/torrinfail/dwmblocks). It aims to provide a minimalist yet functional desktop environment for Linux systems.

+## Dependencies

+- make
+- A C compiler (gcc or clang)
+
+## Installation
+
+1. Clone the repository:
+   ```

+   ```
+
+2. Edit config.h to your liking.
+
+3. Build and install:

+
+## Configuration
+
+nyxwm is configured through the `config.h` file. You can modify keybindings, colors, and other settings here.
+
+The status bar can be customized by editing the `blocks.h` file, where you can add or remove status elements.
+
+## Usage
+
+Add the following line to your `.xinitrc` file:
+

+```
+
+Then, you can start nyxwm by running `startx`.
+
+### Default Keybindings
+
+- `Mod4 + Enter`: Open terminal (st)
+- `Mod4 + p`: Open dmenu
+- `Mod4 + [1-9]`: Switch to workspace
+- `Mod4 + Shift + [1-9]`: Move window to workspace
+- `Mod4 + f`: Toggle fullscreen
+- `Mod4 + q`: Close window
+
+(Add more keybindings as per your configuration)
+
+## Autostart
+
+nyxwm looks for an autostart script at `~/.config/nyxwm/autostart.sh`. You can use this to launch programs or set up your environment when nyxwm starts.
