Dotfiles are any files or directories starting with a "." in their name. They are commonly configuration files for software on your computer, such as the ".vimrc" for Vim and ".config", a common directory for software to have their configurations stored. To learn more about dotfiles, I would recommend looking here.
The Programs I Use Are:
- Sway
I use tiling window managers because they are extensible and minimal, allowing for the perfect rice. I don't want all my RAM to go to animations! - Waybar
A sort of taskbar. It can be highly configured and works perfectly with Wayland and setups using Sway WM. - Kitty
A highly customizable and extremely fast terminal by offloading rendering to the GPU. - ZSH
My favourite shell which I can combine with other software to make even better, such as syntax highlighting and auto command completion. - Starship
The prompt for my ZSH config. It is blazing fast and easy to use with other shells as well. - LunarVim
A layer on top of Neovim to create a sort of IDE. It is perfect as it is extensible, fast and most importantly, looks good. I use this because it is too hard to keep with Neovim trends, and I am not good at configuring, so I only have to worry about the features I want. - Rofi
A run launcher, basically something that allows you to open applications. It is kind of like dmenu but has a lot less hassle in configuration. Config stolen from 'siduck76' and slightly redisigned. - Ranger
A terminal file manager. It is pretty simple and allows image previews. - Macchina
So have you heard of neofetch? Basically that but better and faster.
