## Historique du projet et usages

displayplacer is a macOS command-line utility for configuring multi-display resolutions, arrangements, mirroring, rotation, refresh rate, color depth, and enabled state. Upstream describes it as essentially an XRandR-like tool for macOS, which explains its strong appeal to users who script workstation layouts.

### Historique du projet

The GitHub repository was created in June 2015, with the first GitHub release listed as v1.0.0 in November 2018. Later releases include v1.4.0 in June 2023, when the README notes a backward-compatibility concern around changed `displayplacer list` output.

### Historique d'adoption

The README leads with Homebrew installation and release downloads, while the input package metadata also records MacPorts. Its adoption is tightly tied to macOS automation culture: shell scripts, hotkeys, Automator, BetterTouchTool, and repeatable monitor profiles.

### Modes d'utilisation

Users commonly run `displayplacer list` to print the current layout and supported modes, then reuse generated arguments in scripts to restore a known display arrangement. The README spends unusual space on screen ID stability because macOS can expose changing identifiers when external displays wake or reconnect.

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

displayplacer is a package-nerd favorite because it fills a native-platform gap with a single CLI. It turns GUI display state into reproducible command arguments, making macOS monitor layouts manageable by dotfiles, launchers, and package-installed tooling.
