Blueshift

What is Blueshift?

Blueshift is a versatile tool that enables users to adjust the color temperature of their computer monitor based on the brightness outside, reducing eye strain and facilitating better sleep. It also allows for increasing the color temperature to make the monitor appear bluer, which can help users focus on their work. While Blueshift may not be the most user-friendly application, it offers advanced configuration options through Python 3 scripts, allowing for highly customized behavior. The application's flexibility extends to supporting free software clones, and users can even create their own extensions to make it work on unsupported systems. Blueshift's key purpose is to provide the mechanism for modifying color curves, rather than offering a comprehensive set of user-friendly features. For those seeking a more polished solution, Redshift may be a better alternative, but Blueshift's customization capabilities make it an attractive option for users who require precise control over their monitor's color temperature
