A minimal, keyboard-centric Hyprland experience.

About

My daily driver on Arch + Hyprland. Everything is keyboard-driven, color-synced through Pywal, and managed with GNU Stow. Take what's useful.

Stack

• WM: Hyprland — Wayland compositor with tiling and smooth animations
• Terminal: Kitty — GPU-accelerated, Pywal-themed
• Multiplexer: Zellij — persistent sessions and layouts
• Shell: Zsh + Starship prompt
• Editor: Neovim — LazyVim config with LSP and Treesitter
• Files: Yazi — terminal file manager with image previews
• Documents: Zathura — PDF viewer with SyncTeX + Neovim integration
• Browser: Zen Browser (daily) / Qutebrowser (keyboard-driven)
• Bar: Waybar — Pywal-styled status bar
• Theming: Pywal — wallpaper-based system-wide color sync
• Display: Kanshi — automatic monitor profile switching
• Notifications: Dunst — Pywal-themed notification daemon
• Launcher: Wofi — Wayland app launcher
• Office: OnlyOffice — document, spreadsheet, and presentation editor

Installation

Warning: This script assumes a fresh Arch Linux install. It uses GNU Stow to manage symlinks. Back up your existing ~/.config before proceeding.

# 1. Update & install git
sudo pacman -Syu git

# 2. Clone the repo (must be named 'dotfiles' for symlinks to work)
git clone https://github.com/gab-dev-7/dotfiles.git "$HOME/dotfiles"
cd "$HOME/dotfiles"

# 3. Run the installer
chmod +x install.sh
./install.sh
