- i3-gaps (window manager) + py3status (status bar)
- kitty (fast GPU-accelerated terminal)
- kakoune
- zsh + antigen with prezto and various other plugins
☑ A common color scheme for kakoune, terminal and i3 itself.
It is called Gruvbox dark.
☑ Unobtrusive and minimalistic design of i3, py3status and terminal.
Display only actionable items, use color to highlight importance, slightly dim inactive windows.
☑ True Color support everywhere.
Including kitty, kakoune, tmux; ranger can even display picture previews.
☑ Almost instant terminal startup.
And yet it is empowered with antigen, prezto and other plugins.
☑ Automatically start tmux on the remote hosts.
- Every connection joins the same single tmux session, allowing to easily reconnect after a network failure, your work stays as you left it.
☑ More secure gpg and ssh configuration.
Stronger algorithms, more sensible defaults.
☑ gpg-agent configured to act as ssh-agent.
Extremely nicely integrated with YubiKey, with forwarding to selected remote hosts.
☑ i3 automatically renames workspaces to show currently opened apps.
Using iconic font to fit a lot of info even on laptop screens.
☑ Automatically renumber tmux sessions.
Helps when terminals are being opened & closed a lot during the day.
☑ Automatically change terminal's background color based on the ssh host.
Terminal turns red when you are on production, yellow on staging, etc.
☑ Remember brightness levels on battery and on AC, restore last value when power source changes.
Useful for automatically dimming screen when switching to battery power.
☑ Automatically connect to VPN on selected networks.
Comes bundled with a script to prevent DNS leaks on NetworkManager.
☑ Lazy sourcing scripts to speedup terminal startup.
This is useful for rvm, source it the first time you use
rvm
command.
☑ Automatically backup the list of installed packages (pacman and AUR).
These files are used to bootstrap the new system, all apps are installed in one command.
☑ Setup script that configures user and system dotfiles, systemd services and other little things.
This script is safe to re-run at any time.
