About

I wanted to add restart and shutdown options to XDM screen, but wasn't happy with the solutions I found. So I came up with this...

Polybar for the menus and time. Picom (compton) for shadows and transparency on xlogin window and polybar. And feh provides random backgrounds each time XDM starts.

NOTE: Does not include backgrounds (see here).

Requirements

• XDM - X Display Manger
• polybar - menu and clock
• picom - transparency and shadows
• feh - set background
• Nerd Fonts - fonts with glyphs
