Quick Overview

The elenapan/dotfiles repository is a collection of configuration files (dotfiles) and scripts for customizing a Linux desktop environment. It primarily focuses on the AwesomeWM window manager and includes configurations for various terminal-based applications, themes, and system utilities.

Pros

  • Comprehensive set of configurations for a complete desktop environment
  • Aesthetically pleasing and cohesive design across multiple applications
  • Includes custom scripts and widgets for enhanced functionality
  • Well-organized and documented, making it easy to understand and modify

Cons

  • Heavily tailored to the author's preferences, which may not suit everyone
  • Requires significant time and effort to fully understand and implement
  • Some configurations may be incompatible with certain hardware or software setups
  • Frequent updates may require regular maintenance to keep the system up-to-date

Getting Started

To use these dotfiles:

  1. Clone the repository:

    git clone https://github.com/elenapan/dotfiles.git

  2. Review the contents and decide which configurations you want to use.

  3. Backup your existing dotfiles:

    mkdir ~/dotfiles_backup
mv ~/.config/awesome ~/.bashrc ~/.zshrc ~/dotfiles_backup/

  4. Symlink the desired configuration files to your home directory:

    ln -s ~/dotfiles/.config/awesome ~/.config/awesome
ln -s ~/dotfiles/.bashrc ~/.bashrc
ln -s ~/dotfiles/.zshrc ~/.zshrc

  5. Install required dependencies (varies based on which configurations you use).

  6. Log out and log back in to apply the changes.

Note: It's recommended to carefully review and understand each configuration file before applying it to your system.

Neofetch configs put into a convinient repository

Pros of neofetch-themes

  • Focused specifically on Neofetch themes, providing a wide variety of options
  • Includes preview images for each theme, making selection easier
  • Actively maintained with frequent updates and contributions

Cons of neofetch-themes

  • Limited to Neofetch customization, lacking broader system configuration
  • Less comprehensive documentation compared to dotfiles
  • Fewer configuration options for other system components

Code Comparison

neofetch-themes:

print_info() {
    info title
    info underline
    info "OS" distro
    info "Host" model
    info "Kernel" kernel
}

dotfiles:

# Awesome WM configuration
awful.layout.layouts = {
    awful.layout.suit.tile,
    awful.layout.suit.floating,
    awful.layout.suit.max,
}

The neofetch-themes repository focuses on customizing Neofetch output, while dotfiles provides a broader range of system configurations, including window manager settings.

dotfiles-2.0

XMonad™️. Widgets go brr.

Pros of dotfiles-2.0

  • More extensive documentation and setup instructions
  • Includes additional tools and configurations (e.g., Neovim, Zathura)
  • Actively maintained with recent updates

Cons of dotfiles-2.0

  • Less organized file structure compared to dotfiles
  • Fewer customization options for some components (e.g., polybar)
  • May be more complex for beginners due to additional features

Code Comparison

dotfiles:

-- Autostart windowmanager
awful.spawn.with_shell("~/.config/awesome/autostart.sh")

dotfiles-2.0:

-- Autostart applications
awful.spawn.with_shell("~/.config/awesome/autorun.sh")

Both repositories use similar approaches for autostarting applications in AwesomeWM, but dotfiles-2.0 uses a different file name (autorun.sh instead of autostart.sh).

dotfiles:

#!/bin/bash
run() {
  if ! pgrep -f "$1" ;
  then
    "$@"&
  fi
}

dotfiles-2.0:

#!/usr/bin/env bash
function run {
  if ! pgrep $1 ;
  then
    $@&
  fi
}

The autostart scripts in both repositories use similar functions to run applications, but dotfiles-2.0 uses a more modern shebang and a slightly different syntax for the run function.

This is my personal collection of configuration files that forms the desktop you see on the right.

Here are some details about my current setup:



Philosophy

This is not a traditional desktop in any sense. It is highly opinionated, consists of what works for me and looks good for me and frequently disregards traditional desktop conventions and expectations. It has been evolving for about 8 years, spanning across several window managers and a migration from X11 to Wayland.

This desktop is:

  • Mouse-friendly but keyboard-loving, particularly when it comes to Vi keys
  • Dark and cozy, with vibrant colors and a sprinkle of kawaii-ness

Latest iteration: Aphelion

Features:

  • A sidebar widget with 3 pages:
    1. Clock, date, weather, system info
    2. Calendar and agenda
    3. Media info and controls
  • Network widget integrated with iwd
  • Agenda widget integrated with .org files
  • Quick alarm widget
  • 2-in-1 powermenu and lockscreen widget
  • A simple dock widget, compatible with sway
  • Bunny headpats

All interactive widgets can be controlled both with the mouse and the keyboard.

    kittyTerminal emulator
    iproute2Network events information
    iwdWireless daemon

[!WARNING] iwd: If you already have a different wireless daemon installed, do not install and enable iwd. Having more than one wireless daemon running at the same time might disconnect your current wireless connection or cause other network issues. Note that iwd can be used as a backend for NetworkManager.

[!NOTE] Depending on your distribution, the names of the above packages may slightly differ. Also, some of the packages might not be available in your distribution's repositories so you might have to build them from source.

  1. Install fonts

    The current setup uses the following fonts:

    To save you time hunting for them online, I have uploaded a .zip file to Dropbox. Download the .zip and then:

    # Assuming the .zip was saved in ~/Downloads
unzip -d ~/.local/share/fonts ~/Downloads/elenapan-dotfiles-fonts.zip
fc-cache -v

  2. Install dotfiles

    Backup first:

    mkdir ~/config-backup
cp -r ~/.config/{sway,eww,dunst,fontconfig,kitty,rofi} ~/config-backup

    Then clone the repo and install the relevant dotfiles:

    git clone https://github.com/elenapan/dotfiles
cd dotfiles
cp -r config/{sway,eww,dunst,fontconfig,kitty,rofi} ~/.config

  3. Tweak the last few settings

    • Set wallpaper:

      cp /path/to/your/wallpaper ~/.local/share/wallpaper

    • Set location for the weather information widget:

      Edit ~/.config/eww/scripts/daemons/weather.sh and set the location variable. For example:

      location="Moscow,Russia"

    • Set lockscreen widget password:

      Edit ~/.config/eww/globals.yuck and set the screen-lock-password variable. For example:

      (defvar screen-lock-password "hunter2")

    • Set agenda widget .org files to watch:

      Edit ~/.config/eww/scripts/daemons/agenda.sh and set the org_files variable. For example:

      org_files=("$HOME/notes/todo.org" "$HOME/notes/birthdays.org" "$HOME/notes/finance.org")

Login

To start the desktop, you may follow the steps in the "Starting" section of the Sway article in the Arch Wiki

[!NOTE] SwayFX is essentially Sway with extra features, which means Sway-related and i3-related resources also apply to SwayFX.

Usage

All keybinds are declared in the sway configuration directory in the following files:

  • Global keybinds: keys

  • Binding modes: modes

  • Widget keybinds: eww

    These keybinds, implemented using binding modes, are only active when the respective widget is visible.

Contributing

  • Bugs: This desktop has only one consistent user (me) and there could be bugs I haven't run into yet. If you have the time to report a bug, please do so in the repository's issues.
  • Pull requests: Pull requests for bug fixes or README improvements are welcome. However, before starting work on a pull request for a new feature, please open an issue so we can discuss about it first.

Tip Jar

If you enjoy using this desktop or parts of it and would like to show your appreciation, you may leave a tip here.

It is never required but always appreciated.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart! 💙
