You can read about the packages I use on the wiki. To replicate my setup, run scripts/install.sh on a fresh Arch Linux install. Here's a quick summary about the main packages used:
| Usage | Package |
|---|---|
| Window Manager | i3 |
| Status Bar | Polybar |
| Terminal Emulator | Alacritty |
| Notification Daemon | Dunst |
| Compositor | Picom |
| Launcher & Applets | Rofi |
Some of the status bar modules need manual configuration. Check .env.example for guidance.
To enable the weather module, create a ~/.env file with your location ID and OpenWeatherMap API key.
Use pactl list short sinks to find your audio device IDs and configure them in the .env file.
