SweetDots

A pastel themed rice 🍚

❓ ABOUT

Welcome, Thanks for droping by! This is my dotfiles that I made, it's a dotfiles design to be understandable and hackable by anyone and themed with sweetpastel.

Instead of making multiple Window Manager Configs with different style I opt in on just one style but it should be compatible to other Window Manage so if you switch to another Window Manager it should be the same style, plus it's less work. All the configs are stored in a folder so it won't conflict at your pre existing configs (Except of the window managers they will conflict unless you backup your old files)

📚 WIKI RECOMMENDED

If you have problems or need some information about the dotfiles check wiki page, it provides extra information, some documentation, and a troubleshoot page

⚠️ WARNING ⚠️
THIS DOTFILES IS CONFIGURED AT 1080x800 WITH 96 DPI! SOME STUFF MIGHT BREAK ON LOWER OR HIGHER RESOLUTIONS BUT WILL STILL WORK!

📦 INSTALL

AUTO INSTALL

RECOMMENDED

Copy and paste this command at your Terminal

bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Deathemonic/SweetDots/xorg/install)"

Note:
You need curl, bash and git installed in your system. Also if you are not using archlinux the installer won't install the dependencies automatically you have to manually install them. Check out this link for the list of dependencies

MANUAL INSTALL

Note:
First up install the dependencies need if not the dotfiles doesn't work. Check out this link for the list of dependencies

1. Download or Clone the repo and go to that directory

git clone https://github.com/Deathemonic/SweetDots -b xorg && cd SweetDots

2. Make a backup folder for the conflicting folders

mkdir ~/.backups

3. Move the conflicting folders to the backup folder depending if you have them

mv ~/.config/berry ~/.backups/
mv ~/.config/bspwm ~/.backups/
mv ~/.config/i3 ~/.backups/
mv ~/.config/leftwm ~/.backups/

4. Copy the sweetconfigs-xorg to your ~/.config

cp -rf sweetconfigs-xorg ~/.config/

5. Copy the window manager you config in your ~/.config

cp -rf window-managers/* ~/.config/

• If you have bspwm then copy cp -rf window-managers/bspwm to ~/.config then you if you have bspwm and berry then copy both folders and etc.

cp -rf window-managers/berry ~/.config/
cp -rf window-managers/bspwm ~/.config/
cp -rf window-managers/i3 ~/.config/
cp -rf window-managers/leftwm ~/.config/

• If you have berry you may have to copy the berry.desktop in the xsessions folder in order for the display manager to see it

sudo cp misc/xsessions/berry.desktop /usr/share/xsessions

6. Change the scripts into exutables

chmod +x ~/.config/sweetconfigs-xorg/bin/bar/*
chmod +x ~/.config/sweetconfigs-xorg/bin/menu/*
chmod +x ~/.config/sweetconfigs-xorg/bin/system/*
chmod +x ~/.config/sweetconfigs-xorg/bin/utilities/*
chmod +x ~/.config/sweetconfigs-xorg/bin/widgets/*
chmod +x ~/.config/sweetconfigs-xorg/eww/scripts/*

• If you only installed bspwm then make bspwmrc into a excutable

chmod +x ~/.config/bspwm/bspwmrc

• If you only installed berry then make autostart into a excutable

chmod +x ~/.config/berry/autostart

Finally just reboot or logout of your session and log back in

🎨 COLORSCHEME

It's the color scheme I made and improved by siduck, I was originally just gonna use paradise or gruvbox because it didn't fit well so sweetpastel was born.

📝 TODO

Focusing

• Wayland Version Merging everything to one branch (Wayland and Xorg)
• Port all the scripts to python

Planning

• Better Padding for Widgets
• Improve the widget layout
• Use a better text scroller (Might create my own in rust)
• Use modules more on widgets
• Add a cconfiguration file to manage the configs easily
• Add screenshots on README.md
• Nix Support (Priority Low)

Done

• Add top-panel to all window managers

Removed

• Use pijulius's fork of picom
• Use xborders for fixing the border bugs
• Add more options for window manager forks - Will heavily focus on just the configs
