Description

Backlight and LED brightness can be controlled from lightweight terminal commands. It is useful for scripts, keyboard shortcuts, and minimal desktops that need direct brightness changes.

This is a command-line hardware-control tool from a development branch. It may require permissions to access brightness devices, and setting values too low can make the screen hard to use.

How to run

Commands: brightnessctl
