## Getting Started
Refer to the installation guide in the [documentation ](https://felixkratz.github.io/SketchyBar/setup ) to get the program set up.

Once this is sorted you can start to become familiar with the syntax of sketchybar by going through the default [*sketchybarrc* ](https://github.com/FelixKratz/SketchyBar/blob/master/sketchybarrc ) file,
2022-07-01 15:52:11 +00:00
which is located in `~/.config/sketchybar/sketchybarrc` and looks like this:

All commands and options are explained in detail in the relevant sections
2022-05-14 18:39:24 +00:00
of the configuration [documentation ](https://felixkratz.github.io/SketchyBar/config/bar ). You can try the commands directly from
the commandline to see which affect they have and how they alter the bar. Once you have become familiar with the syntax you can
2022-05-16 09:56:06 +00:00
look for a config to start from [here ](https://github.com/FelixKratz/SketchyBar/discussions/47 ) or start from scratch and customize
everything to your liking.

This project was forked from *[spacebar](https://github.com/cmacrae/spacebar)* and completely reimagined and rewritten. < br >
