MicaForEveryone VS DWMBlurGlass - a user suggested alternative
2 projects | 14 Mar 2024
It’s in my opinion a better alternative to MicaForEveryone. It is much more customizable and isn’t limited to display on 1 active window.

Front-end for Windows32 Context Menu Customization
I've been working on a GUI program called Translucent Flyouts Config; it is a companion application for Translucent Flyouts for Windows 10/11, which allows various customizations for windows32 style context menus. I used PyQt6 for the same. I've made quite some progress in 3 months.
