I want to configure i3 to my needs but i cannot find any documentation on the i3 config file...

My current problem is that i want to make key bindings to change the focused windows border style but i think i should find the right doc part in the docs if i could find the docs.

Has someone a hint?

The i3 User's Guide has a complete description of every command and configuration option.

For me to get started, it helped a lot to look at others config files, so if anyone is interested, mine can be found on github.

do you call the i3exit.sh as sudo?

<@daedalus.mythos">p>@daedalus.mythos `sudo` is not necessarily needed for power related commands of `systemctl` in local sessions, as long as the session is not broken and *polkit* is installed.
