~/.dotfiles

Some of the worthy tools that I use, develop or help maintain:

• stow (symlink manager)
• i3-gaps (window manager)
• i3lock (improved screen locker)
• polybar (A fast and easy-to-use status bar)
• picom (A lightweight compositor for X11)
• rofi (A window switcher, application launcher and dmenu replacement)
• zsh + oh-my-zsh + zsh-syntax-highlighting (terminal sexy <39)
• alacritty (A cross-platform, GPU-accelerated terminal emulator)
• grim + ffmpeg + slurp + xclip (screenshots and screencasts)
• gotop (an interactive process viewer)

How to use?

You need to install some packages that are dependencies for everything to work. The setup.sh script will do this for you, except if you don't use ArchLinux or derivatives, if not, adapt the packages for your distribution.

Do this preferably on some tty

Want to use Arch? Use my install script

$ sudo pacman -Sy git --noconfirm
$ git clone https://github.com/mamutal91/dotfiles ~/.dotfiles
$ cd ~/.dotfiles
$ ./setup/setup.sh
$ ./install.sh
$ startx
