+# Redcore's Qtile Config
+
+## Dependencies
+* Qtile
+* rofi
+* Alacritty
+* JetBrainsMono Nerd Font
+* Kvantum and QT5CT for applying themes to QT applications
+* lxappearance for applying themes to GTK applications
+
+## Changing Themes
+The current configuration comes with several pre-installed color schemes. The default theme is the Redcore theme. These are also included:
+* Dracula
+* Everforest
+* Doom-One
+* Nord
+* Gruvbox Dark
+* Catppuccin
+* moonfly
+* retro
+* whitey
+
+To change a theme, locate the line below in your $HOME/.config/qtile/config.py file:
+
+```colors, backgroundColor, foregroundColor, workspaceColor, chordColor = colors.redcore()```
+
+Change the last word in that line to the color scheme you'd like to use.
+
+## Changing the bar position
+
+You can easily change the bar position by changing the word bottom to the word top in this line:
+
+```Screen(bottom=bar.Bar(widgets=widgets_list, size=30, background=backgroundColor, margin=0, opacity=0.8),),```
