+# Blue Light Filter Widget
+
+This widget provides a simple way to toggle a blue light filter using [Redshift](https://github.com/jonls/redshift). It offers an easy mechanism to switch between day and night modes, reducing eye strain during late-night computer use.
+
+| Day Mode | Night Mode |
+|----------|------------|
+|![Day Mode](day.png) | ![Night Mode](night.png) |
+
+(I couldn't capture the effect itself)
+
+I usually use every widget with my custom (kinda janky) [wrapper widget](https://github.com/VMatt013/MySetup/blob/Debian/.config/awesome/widgets/margin.lua) to make them look cleaner and more unified.
+
+
+**With wrapper**
+

+
+
+## Installation
+
+Clone this repository then add the widget to your wibar:
+
+```lua
+local bluelight_widget = require("awesome-wm-widgets.bluelight-widget")
+local margin = require("awesome-wm-widgets.margin") -- In case you use my wrapper
+
+s.mytasklist, -- Middle widget
+    { -- Right widgets
+        layout = wibox.layout.fixed.horizontal,
+        ...
+        bluelight_widget, -- Add the widget here
+        margin(bluelight, true), -- Add the widget with my wrapper
+        ...
+    }
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+- Click the widget to toggle between **Day Mode** and **Night Mode**.
+  - **Day Mode:** Disables the blue light filter.
+  - **Night Mode:** Activates the blue light filter with a warm color temperature.
+
+## Customization
+
+You can customize the widget by modifying the following parameters in the widget's source file:
+
+| Name       | Default                                | Description                                                |
+|------------|----------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------|
+| `ICON_DIR` | ```awesome-wm-widgets/bluelight-widget/```  | Directory where the widget icons (sun.svg and moon.svg) are stored. |
+| `CMD`      | ```redshift```                            | Command to run Redshift.                                   |
+| `NIGHT_CMD`| ```-O 2500 -g 0.75```                     | Command options for activating Night Mode.                 |
+| `DAY_CMD`  | ```-x```                                  | Command options for activating Day Mode.                   |
+
+## Dependencies
