Beautiful & Aesthetic AwesomeWM Dotfiles! ✨

Welcome to my AwesomeWM configuration files! You might be here for looking my AwesomeWM configuration files? or looking for Linux Rice reference? feel free to steal anything from here but don't forget to give me credits :)

AwesomeWM is the most powerful and highly configurable, next generation framework window manager for X, Although it takes time and effort to configure it, but I'm very satisfied with the result. This is a beautiful user interface isn't it?

These dotfiles are made with love, for sure.


Here are some details about my setup:

Programs Using
WM awesome
OS arch linux
Terminal alacritty
Shell zsh
Editor neovim / vscode
Compositor picom


⚠ WARNING ⚠
THIS DOTFILES ARE CONFIGURED AT 1366x768 WITH 96 DPI

BUT IT WILL STILL WORK PERFECTLY IN HIGH RESOLUTION

DONT WORRY JUST INSTALL THESE DOTFILES AND GIVE THIS REPO A STARS
S E T U P

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

This setup only provided for Arch Linux (and all Arch-based distributions)

  1. Install the git version of AwesomeWM.

    paru -S awesome-git
  2. Install dependencies and enable services

    • Dependencies

      paru -Sy picom-git alacritty todo-bin acpi acpid acpi_call \
      wireless_tools jq inotify-tools polkit-gnome xdotool xclip maim \
      brightnessctl alsa-utils alsa-tools pulseaudio pulseaudio-alsa \
      redshift mpd mpc mpdris2 ncmpcpp playerctl ffmpeg bluez-utils gpick --needed 
    • Services

      # For automatically launching mpd on login
      systemctl --user enable mpd.service
      systemctl --user start mpd.service
      
      # For charger plug/unplug events (if you have a battery)
      sudo systemctl enable acpid.service
      sudo systemctl start acpid.service
  3. Install needed fonts

    You will need to install a few fonts (mainly icon fonts) in order for text and icons to be rendered properly.

    Necessary fonts:

    Once you download them and unpack them, place them into ~/.fonts or ~/.local/share/fonts and run this command for your system to detect the newly installed fonts.

    fc-cache -v
  4. Install my AwesomeWM configuration files

    Clone this repository

    git clone https://github.com/rxyhn/dotfiles.git
    cd dotfiles

    Copy config and binaries files

    cp -r config/* ~/.config/
    cp -r bin/* ~/.local/bin/
    cp -r misc/. ~/

    You have to add TODO_PATH in your env variable

    export TODO_PATH="path/to/todo"
  5. Configure stuff

    The relevant files are inside your ~/.config/awesome directory.

    • User preferences and default applications

      In rc.lua there is a Default Applications section where user preferences and default applications are defined. You should change those to your liking.

      Note: For the weather widgets to work, you will also need to create an account on openweathermap, get your key, look for your city ID, and set openweathermap_key and openweathermap_city_id accordingly.

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