I'm new to the whole ricing scene and really want to dive deeper into it. I've seen plenty of people on YouTube just copying and pasting configurations and calling that ricing, but I'm looking for a more in-depth understanding. I want to be able to customize my system however I want, so I'm asking for guidance. Are there any resources or steps you recommend to help me get started? Your help would mean a lot!

A great way to start is by reading the manuals for the window manager you've chosen. Experiment with making changes to see how they affect things. If you're looking for aesthetics, don't forget to grab a cool wallpaper and learn how to tweak your windows' transparency and add some shiny widgets.
Check out the resources section on your community's wiki—it's packed with info! Also, remember to search for threads on the topic. And keep Smokey's advice in mind: always backup your configs, try new things in a virtual machine, and understand each command before hitting Enter!
That’s solid advice! I’d also suggest finding communities focused on Unix customization for even more tips.
