| 5 | My desktop: **Arch Linux + Hyprland** (Lua config) + **aurora**, a custom Quickshell shell (bar, panel, |
| 6 | notifications, OSD, dock), themed live from the wallpaper with **matugen** and deployed with **GNU stow**. |
| 7 | |
| 8 | ## aurora |
| 9 | One shell instead of waybar, dunst, wlogout, fuzzel and a pile of scripts. Everything below is themed from the |
| 10 | current wallpaper. |

| 43 | > [!WARNING] |
| 44 | > **This is my personal setup, not a general purpose dotfiles framework.** |
| 45 | > |
| 46 | > It's built around my hardware (Lenovo Legion, Intel + NVIDIA hybrid graphics, `linux-zen`), my monitors, |
| 47 | > my keyboard and my habits. I'm not trying to make it work for everyone, and I won't be adding options |
| 48 | > or support for other setups. It's public as a **reference**, or for people who want **exactly the same |
| 49 | > setup** as me. |
| 50 | > |
| 51 | > **Only run `install.sh` on a freshly installed, unconfigured Arch Linux system.** It installs a lot of |
| 52 | > packages (NVIDIA drivers included if you pick them), replaces your configs with symlinks, changes your login |
| 53 | > shell and can enable system services. Don't run it on a system you already use. |
| 54 | |
| 55 | ## Installing (fresh Arch only) |
| 56 | ```bash |
| 57 | git clone https://git.krolyxon.com/dotfiles ~/.dotfiles |
| 58 | cd ~/.dotfiles |
| 59 | ./install.sh # interactive: pick packages per group |
| 60 | ./install.sh --yes # pre-select the default packages, no pickers |
| 61 | ./install.sh --check # only compare installed packages with the lists, changes nothing |
| 62 | ``` |
| 63 | The repo has to live at `~/.dotfiles` (stow links into the parent directory). |
| 64 | |
| 65 | ## Packages |
| 66 | The lists live in `packages/*.txt`: one package per line, `#` for comments, and a trailing `!` means |
| 67 | "listed, but not pre-selected". |
| 68 | |
| 69 | | file | | |
| 70 | |---|---| |
| 71 | | `desktop.txt` | always installed: Hyprland, Quickshell, PipeWire, the tools the shell and keybinds call | |
| 72 | | `utils.txt` | CLI tools, fonts, media, small utilities | |
| 73 | | `dev.txt` | development tools | |
| 74 | | `gpu.txt` | Intel + NVIDIA (`nvidia-open-dkms`) drivers. Change this for your hardware | |
| 75 | | `optional.txt` | desktop apps | |
| 76 | | `aur.txt` | AUR packages (installed with paru) | |
| 77 | | `base.txt` | reference only, never installed: what the base install already provides | |
| 78 | |
| 79 | ## What's inside |
| 80 | | | | |
| 81 | |---|---| |
| 82 | | WM | Hyprland (Lua config), hypridle, hyprlock, hyprpaper | |
| 83 | | Shell / bar | aurora (Quickshell) | |
| 84 | | Theming | matugen: picking a wallpaper in aurora (or `setwall`) re-themes everything (GTK via adw-gtk3, Qt via qt6ct); accent = the wallpaper's own colour, near-black surfaces. The terminal (foot) too, with ANSI colours tinted toward the wallpaper | |
| 85 | | Terminal / shell | foot, zsh | |
| 86 | | Editor | Neovim (LazyVim) | |
| 87 | | Launcher / menus | aurora's runner (`aurora-run`, also a dmenu replacement for scripts) | |
| 88 | | Files | lf, pcmanfm | |
| 89 | | Music / video | mpd + ncmpcpp, mpv | |
| 90 | | Font / icons | JetBrainsMono Nerd Font, Yaru | |
