  • sunpaper

    Dynamic wallpaper changes based on the sun.

  • you can see how apple handles each in the sunpaper/images/ folder on github.

  • sunwait

    Sunwait calculates sunrise or sunset times with civil, nautical, astronomical and custom twilights, for use with Windows Task Scheduler or 'cron' on Linux.

  • It uses a little C utility called sunwait to calculate sunrise/sunset times based on latitude-longitude. Sunwait has some configuration options to adjust for altitude, degree angle of the sun, manual time offset, etc. My sunpaper.sh script itself can do offsets as well -- so between the two you should be able to adjust for your mountains.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • From what I can tell setwallpaper is part of the dependencies listed in the readme. Install wallutils and you should be fine. c:
