A simple and lightweight Python module for easily retrieving Windows' accent color, including shades, specific window chrome colors such as active/inactive titlebar and window borders and theme. Supports Windows 8.x, 10 and 11 and doesn't require additional dependencies.

## 📦 Installation
Run this command in your terminal:

```
pip install winaccent
```

To update the module, run this command:

```
pip install --upgrade winaccent
```

## 📝 Requirements
- Windows 8.0 or newer
- Python 3.6 or newer

## 📜 Documentation
The documentation is available [here](https://valer100.github.io/winaccent).

## 💻 Demo
To see a demo, run the following command in your terminal (winaccent must be installed):

```python
python -m winaccent
```

This command has an optional `--mode` argument. It can take the following values:

| Value | Info |
|:------|:-----|
| gui | Shows a GUI demo. The GUI demo responds to accent color changes. |
| console | Shows a console demo. The console demo **does not** respond to accent color changes. |
| auto | If tkinter is installed and works correctly, a GUI demo will be shown. If that's not the case, a console demo will be shown. |

Example usage:

```
python -m winaccent --mode gui
```

The command will run with `--mode` set to `auto` by default.
