[SOLVED] How to make i3 look good

[storm horizon]

Hello!
I just "finished" my arch install (wm installed, audio and networking is functioning, basically it's in a usable state)
Any tips and tricks on how I can make my i3 wm environment look good? Currently I only have the i3 package installed, and nothing else.
I do not need a display manager, I will make one on my own later on.

Thank you! (I am looking more for suggestions and opinions, rather than actual help)

Generally, I want a very minimal and simple look, I have been using xfce4 for most of my time now and I'd appreciate something less messy over all, sadly I really have no idea what works well together so I am looking for some opinions owo

Take a look at polybar and remove the window borders

Well, I mean I have 1 TB, so I will for sure use it, but I meant more that it's not visually cluttered
