⛧ HELLWINDOW ⛧

a brutalist, amoled-style windows utility for advanced window management. inspired by tools like WindowTop, but focused on speed, minimalism, and a dark aesthetic. made for those who prefer ritualistic minimalism and total control over their workspace.

the tool monitors your focus and captures the last active window before you switch to hellwindow

disclaimer: this tool is intended for personal productivity. use it wisely.

⛧ how it works

hellwindow manipulates the deep windows api to grant you powers over any active window:

• ghost mode: injects WS_EX_TRANSPARENT style, making the window a "spirit" that your mouse ignores. clicks pass through it to whatever is behind.
• transparency: controls the alpha channel of the window layer (7% to 100%).
• always on top: forces the window to stay at the top of the z-order (HWND_TOPMOST).
• auto-save: all your preferences and hotkeys are saved to config.json.

⛧ quick rituals (tools)

• center: snaps the targeted window to the screen's dead center.
• hide: removes the window from sight and taskbar. tagged as [HIDDEN] in the list.
• mute: silences the targeted process's audio stream.
• size: opens a themed ritual dialog to define custom window dimensions (width/height).
• kill: instantly terminates the process. no confirmation, no mercy.

⛧ spirit list

this is your necronomicon. every window you transform is tracked here:

• use reveal to bring back windows lost in the hide ritual.
• click X to release a window and restore its original state.
• the tool monitors your focus and automatically targets the last active window.

⛧ hotkeys

• toggle: click the button to record a new key combination.
• reset: clear all active spirits and return them to the mortal realm.
