❖ Information

Thanks for dropping by! This is my personal repository of my dotfiles.

The setup section will guide you through a step-by-step installation process.

Here are more information about my setup:

• WM: bspwm
• OS: Arch Linux
• Terminal: alacritty
• Shell: zsh
• Panel: eww
• Compositor: picom
• Editor: neovim
• Browser: firefox
• File Manager: thunar
• Application Launcher: rofi

❖ Setup

This is step-by-step how to install these dotfiles. Just R.T.F.M.

First of all, this repository contains submodules. Ensure they are updated before installing.

 $ git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/janleigh/dotfiles.git
 $ cd dotfiles && git submodule update --remote --merge

❖ Installation

After cloning the repository, install the necessary dependencies to replicate by setup.

 $ paru -S bspwm sxhkd rofi neovim alacritty viewnior \
 picom brightnessctl playerctl feh maim jq xclip  \
 imagemagick dunst i3lock-color xdo giph 

Then after the dependencies are installed, copy the files to it's respective folders.

 $ mkdir -p $HOME/.config/ && cp -r ./cfg/* $HOME/.config/
 $ mkdir -p $HOME/.local/bin/ && cp -r ./bin/* $HOME/.local/bin/

 # To make tabbed and chwb2 to work, you must move it to /usr/local/bin.
 $ mv $HOME/.local/bin/usr/* /usr/local/bin

 $ cp -r ./etc/fonts/* $HOME/.local/share/fonts

 # Copy wallpaper.
 $ mkdir -p $HOME/Pictures/walls/personal && cp -r ./etc/walls/personal/personal-6.jpg $HOME/Pictures/walls/personal

Once finished copying the files, you might want to finalize the changes to your system.

 # Rebuilds the font cache
 $ fc-cache -v

Lastly, log out from your current desktop session and log in into bspwm.

❖ Miscellaneous

• Elkowar's Wacky Widgets

  If you're NOT using a monitor with a 1366x768 resolution, you might want to change the x and y values of the widgets on the config.

• GTK Theme

  You can find the custom GTK theme here. You can then apply it by changing the gtk-theme-name to kizus_phocus on your GTK3 config.

• Icon Theme

  You can install this icon theme that suits the GTK theme.

• Firefox Custom CSS Suggested

  See

  You can install the custom Firefox CSS by first enabling toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets in about:config and move the contents of etc/firefox-css to $HOME/.mozilla/firefox/*.default-release/chrome.

• Replacement Commands Suggested

  See

  Assuming you're also using my zsh, you might also want to install some additional dependencies to make some commands work.

  • ls ➜ exa
  • cat ➜ bat
  • df ➜ duf
