Had some spare time so I installed Arch and setup up something nice!

Jump to the Setup section for more details!

This setup still has a long way to go before it comes anywhere close to perfection, however, it works for me and I seek to improve it with time :)

Here for some eye candy? Jump to Gallery!

Setup

Configs were not written with portability in mind, while I'm trying to make it better, things might break.

  1. Install Airblader's i3 (i3-gaps), i3blocks and i3lock.

    Optionally, replace i3lock with i3lock-color. Arch users can get the i3lock-color-git (AUR) package.

  2. Get other dependencies:

    • Arch Linux (using yay)

      yay -S rofi acpid dunst-git feh playerctl alsa-utils acpilight wireless_tools networkmanager
    • Enable acpid:

      # For .config/notifications/(un)plugged.sh
      sudo systemctl enable acpid.service
      sudo systemctl start acpid.service

Summary:

Package Description
rofi Dmenu replacement
picom-ibhagwan A lightweight compositor for X11
playerctl To fetch metadata about the song/video being played
feh A fast and light image viewer, can set a wallpaper
dunst Lightweight notification daemon
acpid Daemon for delivering ACPI events
acpilight Provides xbacklight utility for brightness control
alsa-utils Provides amixer utility for volume control
wireless_tools, networkmanager Necessary for the wifi and vpn i3blocks
  1. Get them fonts!

    Unzip the fonts to ~/.fonts or ~/.local/share/fonts and run fc-cache -v to build the font info cache.

  2. Clone my repo and put all files under .config in your ~/.config and you should be good to go!

    • Caution : Customary heads up that this step will not work for all the configs/scripts.
