The Voidrice

NOTE: This repo doesn't strictly follow LARBS (shortcut's are still kept the same/similar). My preferred WM is bspwm and status bar is polybar.

Additionl Prerequisites:

  • (AUR) polybar (Optional, if you want to use bspwm)
  • bspwm (Optional)
  • zzz (Optional, comes default with runit systems, without it sleep and hibernate won't work)
  • rofi (dmenu replacement)
  • (AUR) rofi-dmenu (dmenu compatibility)
  • xss-lock
  • xorg-appres (x11-utils for debian) (Optional, for changing dunst theme based on current Xresources). To convert your current dunstrc, run the following: 
    dunst_xr_theme_changer.sh && mv -f ~/.config/dunst/dunstrc{_xr_colors,}
  • picom (you can remove xcompmgr)
  • pulseaudio (amixer is still used for volume control)
  • (AUR) pulseaudio-alsa

Other changes:

  • Themes can be added (located at ~/.colors) at ~/.Xresources (current theme is empire)
  • Some additional shortcuts added (see at ~/.config/sxhkd/sxhkdrc)

And don't be a fool and replace the crappy (Chromium based) Brave browser with hardened Firefox.

By the original author

These are the dotfiles deployed by LARBS and as seen on my YouTube channel.

  • Very useful scripts are in ~/.local/bin/
  • Settings for:
    • vim/nvim (text editor)
    • zsh (shell)
    • i3wm/i3-gaps (window manager)
    • i3blocks (status bar)
    • sxhkd (general key binder)
    • ranger (file manager)
    • lf (file manager)
    • mpd/ncmpcpp (music)
    • sxiv (image/gif viewer)
    • mpv (video player)
    • calcurse (calendar program)
    • tmux
    • other stuff like xdg default programs, inputrc and more, etc.
  • I try to minimize what's directly in ~ so:
    • All configs that can be in ~/.config/ are.
    • Some environmental variables have been set in ~/.zprofile to move configs into ~/.config/
  • Bookmarks in text files used by various scripts (like ~/.local/bin/shortcuts)
    • File bookmarks in ~/.config/files
    • Directory bookmarks in ~/.config/directories

Want even more?

My setup is pretty modular nowadays. I use several suckless programs that are meant to be configured and compiled by the user and I also have separate repos for some other things. Check out their links:

  • dwm (the window manager I usually use now which is fully compatible with this repo)
  • st (the terminal emulator assumed to be used by these dotfiles)
  • mutt-wizard (mw) - (a terminal-based email system that can store your mail offline without effort)

Install these dotfiles

Use LARBS to autoinstall everything:

curl -LO larbs.xyz/larbs.sh

or clone the repo files directly to your home directory and install the prerequisite programs or those required for the i3 setup.
