Notes

• If you want to use themes with i3wm you should read this and familiarize yourself with Xresources a tad.
• If you use sway and want to integrate it with base16, please follow installation procedure described in readme. If you have already working setup of base16-sway just make sure to have a include colorscheme command in your config.
• If you are using chriskempson/base16-shell, you'll want to go through the configuration described there, and replace $HOME/.config/base16-shell/ with $HOME/.base16-manager/chriskempson/base16-shell/.
• If you are using chriskempson/base16-vim with Vim, you should add source ~/.vim/colorscheme.vim to your .vimrc. If you are using NeoVim instead, you should add source ~/.config/nvim/colorscheme.vim instead.
