# WinLight

Download Windows 10 Spotlight Lock screen images anywhere

# How to use

Clone this git repository with `git clone https://github.com/Biswa96/WinLight`.

If you want to download the images in a different folder copy the script in it.

Run any one of the scripts as following:

* Python script: Install requests module with `python -m pip install requests`.

Run the script with double click or use `python WinLight.py`.

* Shell script: Install `wget` in your system. Fox example, in Debian and

its family run `apt install wget`. Make the shell script

executable with `chmod +x WinLight.sh`. Then run the script with

double click or use `./WinLight.sh` command in your preferred shell.

There will be some JPEG images after success. Images will be in pair of landscape

and portrait mode. Run the script multiple times to gather more images.

# How this works

Both script work as following:

* Download the `cache.json` file with some magic.

* Edit it for further use.

* Download the images.

* Delete small blank files (less than 2 KB).

To see `cache.json` file, open it in Firefox which highlights it syntactically.

For Chromium and its derivatives, use any JSON viewer or formatter extensions.
