As anyone who's used an application written with the QT UI framework will know, they don't always look the best, and certainly don't fit in with the rest of your desktops theme in the way GTK does. Certain themes support styling both GTK and QT applications, however most don't.

Fortunately, there's a solution, and it comes in the form of a _Theme engine_. Theme engines act as a small compatibility layer, allowing certain frameworks to render as if they were others. With this, we can tell QT applications to render as if they were GTK.

My current desktop of choice is [i3](https://i3wm.org/). After spending a lot of time using [Gnome](https://www.gnome.org/), and always having windows either full screen or split, I tried out i3 in an attempt to use fewer resources, and it's amazing. Admittedly i3 doesn't look quite as nice, but it's far cleaner, and structured, and that's enough for me!

My terminal is a take on the default colourised Debian terminal, with a lambda symbol who's colour changes depending on the return code of the previous command.
