Help me understand the possibilities of Bash (best uses, etc)
Aside from the obvious uses - command line scripts - you can also do quite a bit with the GUI. Check out Yad for bash script GUI. X11 related tools like wmctrl, xdotool allow you to create spectacular scripts. I write and use numerous dynamic menus created with bash + jgmenu.

A little bit confused about window managers
rofi or dmenu are often used and I can recommend them too. These programs are graphical that can be used to build your own menu with a few options and arguments. They also have some functionality to show you installed programs on your system and execute it. Qtile itself have such a functionality too: DmenuRun . And there is a menu program that will list applications like KDE startmenu with categories does in example: jgmenu

is Openbox still being developed?
It is worth adding that Johan is also the author of an excellent jgmenu. So labwc is a serious project led by a great developer. https://github.com/johanmalm/jgmenu

I would also recommend investigating dwm_lut or novideo_srgb as alternatives to actually applying the profile, as they're actually a bit more robust than the native Windows color management system.

Software calibrating a second monitor to match a hardware calibrated monitor?
No hardware needed when you can apply 3D LUTs system-wide for free: https://github.com/ledoge/dwm_lut
dwm_lut: works by hooking into DWM (the desktop window manager), and transforms colors via a 3D LUT. Has some performance impact and doesn't work with exclusive fullscreen, but other than that, it's as good as (or maybe better than) an external LUT box.

novideo_srgb: sRGB clamp/calibration on NVIDIA GPUs, based on EDID data or ICC profiles
3D LUT calibration is even better (and used for professional video production etc.) as it can fully correct for non-linearities, but it doesn't seem to be supported by NVIDIA/AMD GPUs. I did make another tool that can effectively calibrate monitors using 3D LUTs by hooking into DWM to apply them to the Windows desktop, but this comes with some drawbacks (performance impact, and it doesn't work in fullscreen or with DRM'd content).
What are some alternatives?
When comparing jgmenu and dwm_lut you can also consider the following projects:
novideo_srgb - Calibrate monitors to sRGB or other color spaces on NVIDIA GPUs, based on EDID data or ICC profiles
WinCenterTitle - WinCenterTitle is a simple tool that allows you to center align the text in Windows 10 titlebars, the same way it was in Windows 8, 8.1, or even 3.1.
