# Dotfiles

## About

This repo contains my most frequently used config files. If you use the same programs as I do

then they may be useful to you. Please make sure you read through the config files to know if

they will be useful to you and what you may want to change.

## Prerequisites

Before you attempt to install these dots, you must first make sure your system is ready. Otherwise

they may not work as intended.



#### Fonts

For a basic install, you will need to have [Powerline](https://github.com/powerline/powerline) and [Font Awesome](https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome) which will work fine for most of the

symbols to be visible. There are however, some widgets in polybar that will not load properly

and I would highly recommend getting the [Nerd Fonts](https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts) and Noto Fonts packages. For polybar specifically, the necessary

fonts are `UbuntuMono Nerd` and `Noto Fonts Symbols`. These can be installed individually or as part of the previously

mentioned packages.

Terminals use `JetBrainsMono Nerd` so make sure that is also installed.



#### Colors

Colors are not that important to get right and you can go with whatever color scheme you wish. To manage

and control colors I use a [Pywal (Archved)](https://github.com/dylanaraps/pywal). This program can be used to generate colors schemes and palettes which can 

the be integrated into other programs like terminals and Polybar. It is not a must you use it, but if you

want a consistent color scheme throughout your setup, it is recommended to use it.



#### Zsh

I have here, but keep in mind that the screenshots you see are all with Zsh. The outcome will therefor not look exactly the same.

For my Zsh install I used to use [Oh-My-Zsh](https://github.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh) to manage my configuration. I now just use my own dots since they are now mature and do everything I want them to. Visit their Wiki to find out how to use it.

I use [Starship](https://starship.rs/) for the prompt with basically no modifications. The default works fine for me and is easy to re-deploy on other machines. 



#### Polybar

I only use polybar BSPWM. I have not used BSPWM in over a year two years, but if you choose to use my polybar configs, you can find them in my [Carousel Repo](https://github.com/keystroke3/Carousel)



#### Waybar

Since I use Hyprland, I use [Waybar](https://github.com/Alexays/Waybar) instead of Polybar. The font I am using is a paid font called Miriam Vaez, so I can't share freely. 



#### NeoVim

![Neovim in action](./screenshots/hyprland-neovim-bat.png)

I use [KickStart.nvim](https://github.com/nvim-lua/kickstart.nvim) with [my fork](https://github.com/keystroke3/kickstart.nvim). I don't use the nvim configs here and I can't be bothered to remove them.



#### Wallpaper

The full resolution wallapper by Alx can be found on [wallhaven](https://wallhaven.cc/w/1pzdvw). I stretched it a bit since it looked a bit squished despite being very high resolution.
