Important notes

Default terminal emulator

Default terminal emulator is alacritty make sure it is installed. Press SUPER + ; to run it. For more bindings list see Binds

Hyprland coniguration

Hyprland configuration files are located in ~/.config/hypr/ and are splitted into sub-configs that are located under config/. Each one has a link to the wiki page related to it at the top.

XDG Base directories

Warning

I use slightly different XDG directories on my system:

• Instead of ~/Downloads - ~/dow
• Instead of ~/Desktop - ~/wsp
• Instead of ~/Pictures - ~/med/pictures
• Instead of ~/Videos - ~/med/videos

Please keep that in mind before running the installation. This might screw up some of your things. You can change it, here:

• ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs
• ~/.config/hypr/config/env.lua

Installation

Note

Please consider using this repo as a guide, example or an inspiration to create your own dotfiles

Author strongly recommends not installing other's dotfiles blindly

Important

Installer script was tested on Arch linux.

On another distro, some things might not work as expected.

If you're on another distro, please install these packages based on your package manager:

1. packages.txt (oficial repos on Arch)
2. packages.aur.txt (Arch User Repository packages)

---

Before running the installer, install the necessary packages. On archlinux, you can copy & paste this:

sudo pacman -S hyprland hyprlock hypridle xdg-desktop-portal-gtk xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland waybar swaync rofi nwg-dock-hyprland awww zsh alacritty thunar spotify-launcher neovim cava pavucontrol eza fzf htop jq wtype nvtop flameshot grim slurp python-psutil qt6ct kvantum powertop nwg-look mission-center papirus-icon-theme noto-fonts noto-fonts-emoji ttf-cascadia-code ttf-cascadia-code-nerd

Also, make sure that you have an AUR helper like yay installed. With an AUR helper install these:

yay -S vscodium-bin zen-browser-bin peaclock kripton-theme-git tokyonight-gtk-theme-git spicetify-cli bibata-cursor-theme

Altenatively, see packages.txt and packages.aur.txt, install manually the packages you think are needed

Clone the repo & run the installer:

git clone https://github.com/cebem1nt/dotfiles.git --depth=1
cd dotfiles
./install.sh # DO NOT run as super user!

Or install components separately by running scripts from install/ directory:

./install/waybar.sh      # Waybar configuration
./install/spicetify.sh   # Spotify theme
./install/scripts.sh     # Scripts
./install/config.sh      # "Almost all" configuration files

Uninstallation

Your previous config files are stored in ~/.local/old (or ~/.local/old-N based on N times executed the install.sh script). You can restore necessary config files manually or using ./restore.sh script:

./restore.sh

Documentation

Documentation is provided via README.md files in different subdirectories.

Scripts

I have a huge collection of scripts for the usage on my system. You can find them in ~/.local/bin. Some of them are used from hyprland binds config others are used from waybar modules config. Some are used from swaync buttons config.

You can see full scripts cheatsheet here

Wallpapers menu / daemon

The main script responsible for anything wallpapers related is auto_walls. It can:

• Pipe wallpapers menu to rofi
• Set keyboard backlight color based on dominant wallpaper color
• Set next/previous wallpapers
• Set next wallpaper once in N minutes

For more info / setup guide see README

Light/Dark theme

themesw is responsible for the theme switching. It stores name of the next theme in ~/.config/themesw/next and basically just runns sub-scripts that switch theme for each individual application. Sub scripts are located at ~/.config/themesw/units

Patched programs

I have a "software patching" hobby, that's why there are configs for a bit modified programs in my dotfiles. To be exact:

• rofi: 4 addittional drun modes, with pre categorized desktop entries See ~/.config/rofi/bin/drun

   rofi -theme ~/.config/rofi/themes/launcher.rasi \
        -show drun \
        -modi "drun,drun-utils,drun-games,drun-network,drun-media" \
        -drun-exclude-categories "Game" \
        -display-drun "" \
        -display-drun-games "󰊴" \
        -display-drun-utils "" \
        -display-drun-network "󰭹" \
        -display-drun-media "󰲍" \

  

• nwg-dock-hyprland: A complete fork: dock reveal on left click instead of hover, won't reveal if there is an app in fullscreen, Misc right click actions reorganization, hyprland v0.55 support
