Put the contents of the fonts
directory into your ~/.local/share/fonts/
directory.
My plasma font is Ubuntu Nerd Font Propo Med
Install this global theme and also install Kvantum to set Dracula as the Kvantum theme.
If you want my exact icons, then simply unzip the Tela-dracula.zip
into the ~/.local/share/icons/
directory. Then in Plasma Settings > Appearance > Icons, select Tela dracula
.
If you want the default Tela Dracula icons, then install Tela Icons Theme and select the Dracula variant.
For the Dock Icons, they are custom made for what I use; I've provided some in the dock_icons
directory. My custom icons are based on Papyrus. These are
already included in the Tela dracula.zip
, you don't need to do anything else.
You can use this tool to change the color scheme of your icons to the Dracula color scheme (scroll down for the pallette) for apps that you use.
The layout of my panel is:
[Application Menu]---[Virtual Desktop Bar]---[Event Calendar]---[System Tray]
I have it set to Floating and Opaque in the panel settings.
To get the Icons that I have in my System Tray, you can paste the contents of the icons
directory into ~/.local/share/plasma/desktoptheme/Dracula/icons/
, assuming you've installed the Dracula global theme. These icons are most compatible if you set your icon size to 22
in KDE Settings > Appearance > Icons > Configure Icon Sizes > Main Toolbar.
These icons are based on Utterly Round icons so show some love to the original creator by upvoting.
If you're using a different theme, replace the word 'Dracula' with the name of your theme in the path, then replace the icons.
My system tray has all icons set to Always Hidden
except for Audio Volume, Battery and Brightness, Bluetooth, Networks and Media Player, which are set to Always Shown
.
The Application Menu icon is also provided in the dock_icons
directory.
The Virtual Desktop Bar widget is being used to display virtual desktops.
In the Appearance
category of the settings, you can change the Desktop labels style to Name
.
Then you can name all of your virtual desktops as either or (left is pacman, right is ghost - icons may not show in your browser).
You can also change the colors as your wish... remember that I have provided the Dracula color pallette in the Theme section.
The Event Calendar plugin lets you configure how you want to display the time and date.
If you open up the widget settings and go to the General
tab... You can enable Line 1
and put the following string in the textbox to imitate my layout/colors: '<font color="#8BE9FD">' ddd dd MMM '</font>' '<font color="#8BE9FD">' | '</font>' '<font color="#F1FA8C">' h:mm:ss AP '</font>'
I have the changed my font to the Ubuntu Nerd Font Propo Mono
at size 20px with Bold enabled.
Line 2 is disabled in my configuration.
If you would like to use Tiling and Borders, you can use Bismuth and Rounded Corneres.
They both integrate quite well with each other and Rounded Corners also allows you to add borders to your active tiles/windows.
I am using Dolphin as my File Explorer. I believe Kvantum is responsible for setting the theme for Dolphin as described above.
To get the toolbar to show on the left, you can right click and uncheck 'Lock Toolbar Positions' and then drag it to the left of your screen. Don't forget to lock it again.
You can also use some of my dolphin settings by putting dolphinrc
in ~/.config
.
My Neovim config is provided in the nvim
directory. You can simply paste that directory into your ~/.config
directory if you want to use my neovim config.
Or you can pick and chose my plugins inside the nvim/lua/plugin_loader.lua
file.
I use Neovide as well instead of Neovim in the terminal.
For Discord I am using Vencord. The theme for vencord is fawni/dracula. They have instructions on how to install it for Vencord.
I am using Spicetify to style my Spotify.
Once you have Spicetify installed, you can open the 'Marketplace' in your spotify to install the theme 'Text Darkthemer'.
Once it's installed, select the 'Dracula' variant in the dropdown near the search bar.
To get your green accent to turn purple, follow these steps:
- In Marketplace, go to settings by clicking the gear icon
- Enable 'Theme developer tools'
- Go back to the marketplace and you'll notice a paintbrush icon near the theme variant dropdown
- Click that and replace the section labeled
[Dracula]
with the contents of thespicetify.ini
file that I have provided. - Restart spotify and voila
You can install Wezterm, Zsh and Oh-my-posh to make your terminal look like mine.
Put the wezterm
directory in your ~/.config
directory to use my wezterm config.
Put the .zshrc
in your ~
aka $HOME
directory to use my Zsh config... it's very basic.
Put the OhMyPosh
directory in your ~/.config
directory to use my Oh My Posh config.
For Edge I have the Plasma Integration extension. This allows me to go to edge settings and select "KDE" as my theme. It will then use the appropriate theme colors.
Dracula has an official theme for Edge here. You can follow instruction in there if you want that one.
The dashboard that you see in the browser is called Homepage.
If you plan to use it, you can use my official Homepage dracula theme here.
And that is all folks... I hope you enjoy.
