# Disclaimer
This project is archived and not maintained since i don't have time for it. Eventually, generating ISOs takes hours.
But `kali_i3wm_2020_4.iso` can be still downloaded from sourcefourge and it will still work out of box but __repos are very old__.

I strongly recommend you to use [Arszilla's kali-i3](https://gitlab.com/Arszilla/kali-i3) version instead, he is actively maintaining it.

Since it's release in 2020, the project got over [2200 downloads](https://sourceforge.net/projects/kali-i3wm/files/kali-linux-rolling-live-i3wm-amd64.iso/stats/os?dates=2020-11-23%20to%202030-12-30) on sourceforge from all over the world, thank you all for using it.
Dunno if i ever release a modern version, but it was definetely a fun ride.

# Overview
Since default kali live-usb ISOs come with kde or gnome, i decided to create a live-usb variant that use i3wm as default.
Because i3 is much more ram efficient and runs better on low-spec computers and usb disks.
This build has all the tools that one needs on the go such as applets, media players, scripts etc. It's pre-configured and also riced to give it a cool look and easier use.
