Setup Tips
Stick to a single icon color — white on dark or black on light backgrounds
Choose wallpapers with very little color variation to maintain the monochrome feel
Hide app labels for maximum minimalism, or use labels in the same color as the icons
Use KWGT widgets from the same icon pack to maintain the outline style in widgets too
A monochrome dock with 4-5 essential apps keeps the bottom clean and intentional

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between Caelus White and Vera Outline?
Caelus White features thin, consistently weighted line icons — every icon has the same stroke width for maximum uniformity. Vera Outline has slightly more visual personality with varied line weights and more detailed designs. Caelus is more technical, Vera is more artistic.
Does a monochrome setup look boring?
No — the constraint creates elegance. By removing color, the icon shapes and wallpaper composition become the focus. It's like a black and white photograph versus a color one — sometimes less color means more visual impact.
Can I do monochrome on light backgrounds?
Yes! Use Caelus Black or Vera Outline Black for dark outlines on light wallpapers. The principle is the same — single color icons, minimal wallpaper, zero visual clutter.
