You may want to take a look at the individual blocklet directories, which contain descriptions, screenshots, and installation/configuration instructions.

Note	configurations reference $SCRIPT_DIR, meaning the directory that you put the script into. You must change $SCRIPT_DIR appropriately to coincide with where you put your scripts, for more info see the FAQ.

Want to contribute? Great! Check the contribution guidelines in order to get started.

Note	i3blocks now supports dynamics properties, and all scripts have been updated to do the same. i3blocks-contrib REQUIRES a version of i3blocks that supports dynamics properties, which is currently only available in the git version since the last release (v1.4) was years ago.

Happy crafting!
