redshift
Redshift adjusts the color temperature of your screen according to your surroundings. This may help your eyes hurt less if you are working in front of the screen at night. (by jonls)

The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Mount usb with user access
The most common approach (though a bit different) to get write access for users is probably using udisks[1]/udiskie[2] which use udev and polkit [3]. udiskie even supports luks unlocking [4].

How to mount LUKS encrypted USB storages (and HDDs inserted to hot swappable drive bay) automatically when connected? The machine is running headlessly, does not have desktop environments installed.
https://github.com/coldfix/udiskie looks close, but does it work without desktop environments? Is there alternatives to udiskie that doesn't require desktop environments and supports unlocking LUKS encrypted volumes?
-
Automount luks encrypted external USB drive?
Based on https://github.com/coldfix/udiskie/blob/master/doc/udiskie.8.txt and https://github.com/coldfix/udiskie/issues/66#issuecomment-289204539, you probably need to create a configuration for the encrypted hard disk in the file ~/.config/udiskie/config.yml. For example, as follows.

New to wm, I choose i3-gaps, any suggestions?
For example, I typically ran things like lxpolkit, nm-applet, redshift, udiskie and xfce4-power-manager when I used i3.
- External Device Detection
-
I3wm - How to get notified for an external device being connected?
By running udiskie in your i3 session, for example.
-
Allow a user mount/dismount HDD's without sudo
This. There is also udiskie, a GUI tool with notification icon, support for unlocking encrypted partitions, powering off USB devices, and so on.
- Please add paragraph "Automount external drives" into doc
-
basic applets/tray apps for tiling wm
I've used udiskie to handle removable drives in i3.

Conversion from tm struct and String into time_t
Redshift has code to calculate that locally which I use in my sunrise light project

Does XFCE have a night light?
FWIW, Linux Mint XFCE comes with Redshift.

If you use your PC for long hours, use Eye Saver app to protect your eyes.
Other options include f.lux and redshift.

How do you build circuits?
eg for this project my available inputs were intermittent 12v power, bluetooth, and the current time and location; and the desired output was 3× high current low-side switches that produced 12v RGB PWM corresponding to the colour temperature and brightness of the sky - so we need a bluetooth microcontroller, battery backup to keep time when 12v is absent, some battery management which wanted 5v in, a 12v buck to feed it, some MOSFETs, and redshift or similar code to plug into things.

How can I use an Arduino board to control LEDs so it imitates the sunlight color temperature throughout the day?
I just added redshift as a submodule to handle the GPS location + UTC time to color temperature conversion.
-
what's the alternative for linux like F.lux for windows for yellow light and brightness for screen?
But I still use redshift and prefer it over f.lux. I am on cell and this is first result so double check https://github.com/jonls/redshift
-
Linux (Debian) equivalent of DimScreen on Windows or MonitorControl on MacOS?
Anyway, for dimming screens with overlays (or gamma alteration), Redshift seems to have a -b option.

How do you even install redshit on windows ? (screen temp program)
The instructions are super confusing to me. Here's the github :https://github.com/jonls/redshift
What are some alternatives?
When comparing udiskie and redshift you can also consider the following projects:
rofi - Rofi: A window switcher, application launcher and dmenu replacement
gammastep
skim - Fuzzy Finder in rust!
go-sct - A color temperature setting library and CLI that operates in a similar way to f.lux and Redshift. Supports Wayland, X and Windows

xrandr-brightness-script - 🔆 Script for adjusting the brightness and color temperature of displays on a software level using xrandr.
inxi - inxi is a full featured CLI system information tool. It is available in most Linux distribution repositories, and does its best to support the BSDs.
Hyprland - Hyprland is a highly customizable dynamic tiling Wayland compositor that doesn't sacrifice on its looks.
jellex - TUI to filter JSON and JSON Lines data with Python syntax
