"BetterThanYour" dotfiles

A minimal theme for AwesomeWM

Main goal here was to keep the rc file as sort as possible, while providing decent astheics.

It is still work in progress.

How to install

Dependancies

• AwesomeWM
• Kvantum : to select tranparent theme
• picom : to have blur & fade effects on windows
• playerctl : to control music
• maim : to take screenshots
• i3lock : to have lock screen
• qt5ct : to set Qt themes
• nitrogen : to set wallpaper
• Cantrella, Cascadia fonts

Obviously you can replace some of these programs with the ones of your choice but have to modify the rc file accordingly

After installing the dependacies run

git clone https://github.com/codiac-killer/BetterThanYour.git ~/.config
ln -s ~/.config/BetterThanYour/awesome ~/.config
ln -s ~/.config/BetterThanYour/picom.conf ~/.config
ln -s ~/.config/BetterThanYour/kvantum_theme ~/.config/Kvantum/BetterThanYour

If the last command fails its because you haven't used Kvantum yet

if (last line failed){
	Launch Kvantum
	Click: "Select a Kvatum theme folder"
	Go to ~/.config/BetterThanYour/kvatum_theme
	Click open
}

In Kvantum change into the newly added theme.

That's it! (Re)start Awesome and you are ready.
