# Dotfiles
These are my dotfiles. I primarily use **Arch Linux**, but from time to time, I’ve been known to use **Arco**, **Manjaro**, or another Arch-based distro. **RedHat** is also dope, although it doesn't need much configuration. I also run **Debian** or **Ubuntu** on a few server systems a very few, so I ensure my dotfiles work there as well. And, on the rare occasion, I use a **Laptop**, where most of these dotfiles also work without issue.
---
## Main Things Here
- **Neovim** configuration.
- **Zsh** configuration.
- **Window manager** configuration.
- **Alacritty** configuration.
- **Polybar** configuration.
- **Ranger** configs.
---
## My Setup
Currently, my primary system is **Arch Linux** running on a **Ryzen 5 2600X (6-core)** CPU with a **GTX 1050Ti**. I use the **Awesome Window Manager** as my window manager (yes, it's paired with Polybar because I like it that way — don't judge). Though I do enjoy **DWM** (maybe) and **BSPWM**, **Awesome** has my heart. For transparency effects, I use **iBhagwan's Picom Fork** i think.
My terminal of choice is **Alacritty** (with **kitty** or **st** as a backup), and **Neovim** is my go-to text editor.
Here’s a quick breakdown:
- **Window Manager**: Awesome WM (with Polybar)
- **Terminal**: Alacritty (kitty or st as backup)
- **Editor**: Neovim
- **Compositor**: iBhagwan's Picom Fork
- **System**: Arch Linux (on Ryzen 5 2600X, GTX 1050Ti)
