DLite User Guide
Introduction
Welcome to the DLite User Guide.
DLite is a powerful tiling manager compatible with most web pages and powered with smart features specifically designed for Discord channels.
DLite allows you to bookmark any web page, open it as a popup and save popup layouts you can open with a single click.
Discord channel popups come with hidden sidebars and channel lists, allowing for space optimization and readability.
