bspwm

I use bspwm as my window manager of choice. My setup is optimized for HiDPI, so you will have to manually adjust the numbers if you aren't using a HiDPI display.

Dependencies

bspwm - Window manager
polybar - Panel
dunst - Notifications
rofi - Window switcher, application launcher, and dmenu replacement
sxhkd - Keybinds
rxvt-unicode-patched - Terminal with image support
termite - Terminal with true transparency, icon fonts, true color, and emoji support
python-pywal - A universal color scheme changer
feh - Used to set the background image

Installation

make package=bspwm

Usage

Either startx directly or use a display manager. Assuming you have the necessary dependencies installed, and assuming you configured your system properly, everything should just work.

Note

When you use wal to change the color scheme, add -o ~/.config/wal/done.sh to run the done script. The fish abbreviation w does this automatically for you.
