Blue light is the light your computer releases which tells the brain to stop melatonin production. In other words, looking at a computer screen prevents your body from falling asleep, and deprives you of melatonin. Melatonin helps control your body’s healthy sleep patterns. But it can be disabled using an amazing work of software engineering. Ladies and gentlemen, Flux!

What the Flux website has to say:
“Ever notice how people texting at night have that eerie blue glow?
Or wake up ready to write down the Next Great Idea, and get blinded by your computer screen?
During the day, computer screens look good—they’re designed to look like the sun. But, at 9PM, 10PM, or 3AM, you probably shouldn’t be looking at the sun.”
On top of that, Flux even changes blue light levels based on the time of day, and the levels even match the sun rise and set!
