It's meant to work well on dark windows, with Mica or MicaAlt backdrops, with or without the Translucent Windows mod.

Planned

Taskbar

• Nothing, for now.

Start Menu

• Attempt to add more customization to Start Menu's App list and Search Menu.

Notification / Action Center

• Attempt to add missing JumpLists menu animations, and maybe remove more separation borders in other areas of the Action Center (Wired Display & Project).

File Explorer

• Attempt to remove drop shadows and add matching corner radius and borders to more XAML elements.
  • I believe I can't add the Luminosity backdrop.
