Optional configurations and customisations

Dotfiles (myconfig)

These are useful config files.

mkdir -p ~/utils
git clone https://github.com/alonsoJASL/myconfig.git ~/utils/myconfig
cd ~/utils/myconfig

Wire up each piece:

  • rofi: cp -R rofi ~/.config/
  • Starship: cp starship.toml ~/.config/
  • Kitty: copy contents of kitty/ into ~/.config/kitty/
  • Conky: copy contents of conky/ into ~/.config/conky/, then set ~/.config/conky/start_conky.sh as a startup application.
  • bashrc: cherry-pick what you need from .bashrc into your own.
  • Colorscript: apply the patch (see below).

Colorscript and wallpapers

mkdir -p ~/.installs
cd ~/.installs
git clone https://gitlab.com/dwt1/shell-color-scripts.git
git clone https://gitlab.com/dwt1/wallpapers.git

Symlink colorscript and have it run on shell start:

sudo ln -s ~/.installs/shell-color-scripts/colorscript.sh /usr/local/bin/colorscript
echo 'colorscript -r' >> ~/.bashrc

Keyboard shortcuts

Set these in your window manager:

Shortcut Action
SUPER+R rofi -show run -normal-window
SUPER+W rofi -show window -normal-window
SUPER+Return Open kitty
SUPER+Q Close the focused window
SUPER+F Open pcmanfm

Optional: remove the Ubuntu dock

It just takes up space!

sudo apt remove gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock
