These are my dot files for Graphical Instance on my system.
I use **[Arch Linux](https://archlinux.org)** as My main OS and **[Hyprland](https://hyprland.org)** as my window manager.
The configuration is highly dependent on **[pywal](https://github.com/dylanaraps/pywal)** i prefer a fork for 16-base colors **[pywal16](https://github.com/eylles/pywal16)**

General Read

**If you are Reading this, you are probably interested in my dotfiles.
I have a few things to say before you start using them.** > *I use autologin via `~/.zprofile`* ```zsh # Ensures me getting auto logged in into Hyprland check() { command -v "$1" &>/dev/null } check center-align && { echo "$USER" | center-align } check Hyprland && { pgrep -x Hyprland &>/dev/null || Hyprland &>/dev/null } || { echo "Hyprland Not found will not launch it as GUI instance" } ```

> **GTK**: adw-gtk3 (gradience for colors) **KDE/QT**: Kvantum (pywal theme)
> [nwg-look-bin,qt6ct]

- *Wal**: My most of the colors are generated from `pywal16` i have added templates but if you want to look at a generated file for reference, You can find that at `extra/wal` this is in the same format as it will be generated inside `~/.cache/wal`. It has been generated using image below ![wall_secondary](https://github.com/niksingh710/gdots/assets/60490474/7e9a9661-6bd5-4aa5-a552-7c793781d2f6) - **Stow** : Stow is the tool i prefer to manage my dot files (i use `xstow` to be exact but it shouldn't matter). ```bash stow ./dir -t ``` e.g ```bash stow .config -t ~/.config ``` Will create softlinks to all the dir inside repos `.config` to `~/.config/` - **Pywal** : As i have mentioned earlier i use a pywal fork. It provides a 16 base color scheme. **pywal16** provides `.lighten(val%)` and `.darken(val%)` to lighten or darken the colors. I use them in my templates so normal `pywal` won't work here. ```bash wal -a 92 --cols16 darken --recursive -i ./path/to/wallpaper/or/dir -o after-wal ``` _{You can check about `wal` command args by doing `wal --help`_{I want to grab your attention here for the `after-wal` script.

- **after-wal** : This will be executed after wal command is executed.

The `wal` command will generate all the color schemes from the `~/.config/wal/templates/` dir and place them in `~/.cache/wal`.

It is the after wal command that places the color schemes in the right place and does the right thing.

e.g
- It copies `colors-waybar.css` to `~/.config/waybar/colors.css` (this file is in .gitignore)
- It copies kvantum theme with a name of `pywal` also takes care for dir creation.
- It copies gradience theme with a name of `pywal` also takes care for dir creation.
- It copies background image for firefox to `~/.mozilla/firefox/xxxx.default/chrome/`

This is acheived by placing a `bg` named file in the `mozilla` dir and then finding the file by using `fd` command and placing `wallpaper.png` to that dir
- It generates a blurred version fo the wallpaper with name `~/.cache/wal-blurr.png`

After executing stow you will find this command in you `~/.local/bin` dir.}}

Waybar

Waybar uses many scripts those should be available in ~/.local/bin and waybar specific scripts are available in bin dir of waybar.

Waybar get's colors from a css file that get's copied there by after-wal

I have a keybind in my config that toggles it. Super+b -> killall -SIGUSR1 waybar

Waybar get's started by a script ~/.local/bin/bar.sh that switches it's output based on connected monitors.

Firefox

The Firefox theme i use is ShyFox. Checkout the documentation for the setup. I have the current state of my theme in my extra/chrome.shyfox dir. The theme is so nice that it has floating tabs url bar and much more. (Check further preview)

Keymaps i have setted up With my setup in my SideBerry and all of my extensions. e.g:

Alt-J,K : To switch in tabs
Ctrl-Shift-L : To toggle the floating of sidebery

And Many more. Shortcuts are to be made by personal preference but then also if you feel i should list them or you want my one those are higly likely to be like vim ping on issue.
