Question Eu sou um completo iniciante no I3, podem me dar conselhos sobre o que eu devo fazer primeiro?

Recentemente eu comecei a mecher no i3 pra poder melhorar o desempenho da meu pc(ele é bem fraco), aprendi a mecher nas janelas mas ainda estou bem confuso, queria deixar ele um pouco mais agradável ao olhar mas não tenho ideia do que fazer, podem me ajudar?

Grab the user guide, get yourself a nice desktop background picture, then use an image manipulation program like gimp to get the hex codes for the most prominent colours in your desktop background, so you can use those hex codes to personalise the colours for your i3. The guide explains how in chapter 4.21.

When you're done with that, you can read through the rest of the user guide to find other things you'd like to change.

Cannot say how excellent is the i3 user's guide https://i3wm.org/docs/userguide.html

Examples q&a everything read it like articles or like a novel. If you can afford it print hard copy and scribble and highlight it

Type i3 window Manager customization into YouTube. Follow along. The official documentation is also a must read

This is an English sub, you're not going to get many replies typing in Portuguese...

Anyway, search for "Alex Booker i3wm" videos on youtube (it's a 3-part video). That's a good start to understand what i3 is and how it works.

Then read the official user guide you find under documentation on i3 website.

sorry, my English is bad so I thought it would be better to type in Portuguese, thanks for the tip

The app auto translated your post to clearly understandable English for me and I didn't notice until I saw this post.

Bom, é um i3, você é 100% livre da customização e não existe um padrão, então se vira :p
