wal is a script that takes an image (or a directory of images), generates a colorscheme (using imagemagick) and then changes all of your open terminal’s colors to the new colorscheme on the fly. wal then caches each generated colorscheme so that cycling through wallpapers while changing colorschemes is instantaneous.

wal also merges the new colorscheme into the Xresources database so that programs on your system such as Rofi or i3 use the new colors automatically. wal finally exports the colors into various formats so that you can use the colors in webpages, scripts, other programs etc.
