## Material and Mouse driven theme for [AwesomeWM 4.3](https://awesomewm.org/)
### Original design by PapyElGringo, I modified it removing sidebar and condensing the bars to a single top panel.
Note: This fork focuses on streamlining the config and adding some Quality of Life touches to the theme.
An almost desktop environment made with [AwesomeWM](https://awesomewm.org/) following the [Material Design guidelines](https://material.io) with a performant opiniated mouse/keyboard workflow to increase daily productivity and comfort.

- [picom](https://github.com/yshui/picom) for the compositor (blur and animations) universal install: picom - Debian users need PPA (`sudo add-apt-repository ppa:regolith-linux/unstable`) _Note: I recommend Compton for Debian Users and the Debian Branch_

- [pnmixer](https://github.com/nicklan/pnmixer) Audio Tray icon that is in debian repositories and is easily installed on arch through AUR.
- [network-manager-applet](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/network-manager-applet) nm-applet is a Network Manager Tray display from GNOME.
- [xfce4-power-manager](https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-power-manager/start) XFCE4's power manager is excellent and a great way of dealing with sleep, monitor timeout, and other power management features.
### 2) Clone the configuration
Arch-Based Installs
```
git clone https://github.com/ChrisTitusTech/titus-awesome ~/.config/awesome
```
Debian-Based Installs
```
git clone --branch debian https://github.com/ChrisTitusTech/titus-awesome ~/.config/awesome
```
### 3) Set the themes
Start `lxappearance` to activate the **icon** theme and **GTK** theme.
Note: for cursor theme, edit `~/.icons/default/index.theme` and `~/.config/gtk3-0/settings.ini`, for the change to also show up in applications run as root, copy the 2 files over to their respective place in `/root`.
Recommended Cursors -
Set Rofi Theme
```
mkdir -p ~/.config/rofi
cp $HOME/.config/awesome/theme/config.rasi ~/.config/rofi/config.rasi
sed -i '/@import/c\@import "'$HOME'/.config/awesome/theme/sidebar.rasi"' ~/.config/rofi/config.rasi
```
### 4) Same theme for Qt/KDE applications and GTK applications, and fix missing indicators
First install `qt5-style-plugins` (debian) | `qt5-styleplugins` (arch) and add this to the bottom of your `/etc/environment`
```bash
XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=Unity
QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=gtk2
```
The first variable fixes most indicators (especially electron based ones!), the second tells Qt and KDE applications to use your gtk2 theme set through lxappearance.
### 5) Read the documentation
The documentation live within the source code.
The project is split in functional directories and in each of them there is a readme where you can get additional information about the them.
