• Window Manager: i3,swaywm,hyprland
• Bar: polybar,waybar
• Launcher: rofi
• Compositor: picom (for xorg)
• Terminal: ghostty
• Code Editor : Neovim
• Lockscreen: i3lock,swaylock,hyprlock
• File Manager: nemo
• Fonts: jetbrainsmono nerd font, roboto-condensed, font-awesome, iosevkaterm nerd font
• Policykit: mate-polkit

Installation script :

curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bibjaw99/workstation/refs/heads/master/install_scripts/install.sh | bash

how the script works :

• all the dotfiles will be stored in a folder called dotfiles in your $HOME/.local/share directory
• then if the config already exists in the $HOME/.config directory then it will be backed up in the $HOME/.config.backup directory
• then a symlink will be created from $HOME/.local/share/dotfiles directory to the $HOME/.config directory
  • why this approach instead of using/creating actual directories ? : it's easy to dump them all togather in the github project folder after making huge changes in multiple app configs
• names of the config directories and config files that needs to be symlinked, must be listed in the respected files in workstation/install_scripts/config_lists.
  • check symlink_configs.sh and symlink_files.sh to understand it better

folder structure of my install script :

• if you already finished the base arch installation just clone the repo
• run the $HOME/github/workstation/install_scripts/install.sh script
• before installing you can check the list of the Packages in the install_scripts directory and modify it according to your likings
  • just go to /workstation/install_scripts/package_lists directory to find all the list of packages
