dotfiles

A repository containing my linux dotfiles (WIP)

AGS was reworked from the ground up, and my current UI does not work! This will take me a while to adjust!

Config

• 🖥️ OS: Arch Linux
• 🐚 Shell: zsh
• 🎨 DE: Hyprland
• 🖱️ Cursor: Bibata-Modern-Ice
• 🖼️ Theme: Colloid-Orange-Dark
• 📁 Icons: Papirus-Dark

1. Install all the dependencies.
2. Run git clone https://github.com/NickVeles/dotfiles/ .

Things you have to do manually

• Check .config/hypr/nvidia.conf for important information (if using nvidia gpu)
• Enable services: ufw, cups.service.
• Enable Experimental = true in /etc/bluetooth/main.conf.
• Place sugar-candy folder in /usr/share/sddm/themes/.
• Place sddm.conf file in /etc/.
• Install the Colloid GTK theme:
  • Run git clone https://github.com/vinceliuice/Colloid-gtk-theme
  • Run ./Colloid-gtk-theme/install.sh --theme orange --tweaks rimless

Some day I'll (surely) create an install script that does all these things. For now, it's all manual.
