Setup

Drop all files except Extras in ~/.config.

Extras include:

  • GTK icons and themes go to ~/.icons and ~/.themes. (Install lxappearance to change GTK theme if you're on a WM)
  • Scripts under bin go to ~/.local/bin by default. Don't forget to chmod +x.
  • vim-airline contains color scheme for vim-airline, put it under ~/.vim/plugged/vim-airline-themes/autoload/airline/themes
  • wal contains colors.json for pywal
  • wallpaper

You want to add these to your session startup script (.xprofile or .xinitrc)

  • Media controls playerctld deamon &
  • Charger event notifications $HOME/.local/bin/chargernotif &
  • Weather module and notification ntfd &

Adjust the position of the bars in ~/.config/polybar/config.ini

Keybinds

Basically just default sxhkd keybinds, so...

  • Super + space for run launcher
  • Alt + tab for, well, tab switcher
  • Super + enter for kitty
  • printscrn for flameshot
  • Check sxhkdrc for more (it's mostly just default)
