## Configuration ⚙️

Settings are customizable via a JSON file (.byteme.json) in your project directory.

You can adjust:

theme: "plain", "rainbow", or "pastel"

showBanner: true or false

dailyTip: true or false

Example .byteme.json:

{
  "theme": "rainbow",
  "showBanner": true,
  "dailyTip": false
}

Theme:

"rainbow" or "pastel" shows colorful animated messages.

"plain" cycles through preset colors randomly (e.g., blue, red, cyan).

ShowBanner: If true, an ASCII-art banner is displayed on start; if false, it is hidden.

DailyTip: If true, shows a random motivational tip once per day.
