Welcome to my dotfiles repo. Below you'll find a list of my dotfiles, including neovim, sway and waybar.
If you're new to sway and Wayland, you need to install alternatives for your programs to be compatible with Wayland, see this guide
- v0.1.0:
- Using dmenu and Xwayland;
- v0.2.0:
- Using wofi and removed xwayland;
- v0.3.0:
- For neovim, change to packer.nvim to manage plugins and separating each section in their each file (shortcuts, plugins and config);
- Not using kitty anymore. Currently using foot;
- Some icons on waybar changed: Using font-awesome icons.
- v0.4.0:
- Testing helix;
- Remove wallpaper (too much heavy);
- Change waybar to swaybar (waybar too slow on boot)
- Change wofi to bemenu-wayland
- 0.5.0:
- Using VSCode as default
- Set wallpaper to my monitors again, because there is no sense to not use in dual monitors (it consumes little ram compared to waybar)
- Update sway to make it more "organized"
- Using waybar because I like the feature of increasing or lower the volume level
- Current version:
- Use Neovim;
- Replace dual to a single monitor
- Some changes to make my experience better
- Update wallpaper
- Protocol: Wayland for Sway (Pure wayland, not Xwayland)
- Version manager: Git
- Terminal: Foot
- Editor: VSCode
- Audio: Pipewire with pipewire-pulse
- Multiplexer: Tmux with TPM
- Prompt (including theme): Starship
- Shell: Fish shell
- Manage multiple runtime versions: asdf-vm
- GNUPG to sign keys
Firstly, clone the files in your home directory:
git clone https://github.com/victor4pinheiro/dotfiles $HOME/
Copy the folder
cp -r $HOME/dotfiles/foot $HOME/.config/
In previous version, I used to kitty as my default terminal, but I searched for a lightweight alternative and so I found foot.
I think it is more lightweight, easy to customize and totally made for Wayland.
Copy the config file of waybar
cp -r $HOME/dotfiles/waybar $HOME/.config/
Copy the config file of sway
cp -r $HOME/dotfiles/sway $HOME/.config/
With this, just press Super + Shift + C and you'll see changes.
TMUX is a really addition to my workflow because I have the performance of fish and starship using multiple panels (I tried the splits from neovim but I didn't like it).
To this, you must install tmux using your package manager or the executable and follow instructions to use the TPM, a plugin manager for tmux.
After configuring the TPM you can just copy the .tmux to $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/tmux/tmux.conf or to $HOME. This can done this way:
For $HOME:
cp -r $HOME/dotfiles/.tmux.conf $HOME/.tmux
For $XDG_CONFIG_HOME:
cp -r $HOME/dotfiles/.tmux.conf $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/tmux/tmux.conf
Usually $XDG_CONFIG_HOME is $HOME/.config but check before doing this step.
I don't recommend my config without see the wiki, but if you already know what pacman.conf and makepkg.conf do, so just copy config file:
WARNING: I use doas to use use root privileges, so just change to command root you installed Firstly the pacman:
doas cp -r $HOME/dotfiles/pacman.conf /etc/pacman.conf
Makepkg:
doas cp -r $HOME/dotfiles/makepkg.conf /etc/makepkg.conf
Using Wayland, sometimes I need to force apps to use Wayland.
doas cp -r $HOME/dotfiles/environment /etc/environment
MPV is a lightweight videoplayer and I set to use VA-API acceleration.
cp -r $HOME/dotfiles/mpv $HOME/.config/
