Switching to a Tiling Window Manager
Over the past week or two, I have been putting together a Sway environment. I haven't decided on everything I want to use yet, nor have I finished configuring everything, but following is some of the stuff that I have decided on already:
- Fedora base (I started on GNOME and am migrating everything over. Still Fedora, though)
- Sway, a really customizable tiling window manager that is pretty neat, I've found
- Kitty terminal emulator. I am using zsh for my shell
- Waybar
- Stow for dotfiles (and a GitHub repo that stores stowed dotfiles)
- Rofi launcher
- I styled everything with the Duckbones theme
I'm continuously making various small changes to all my files. I've found that most of these changes are either related to spacing of UI or changing keybinds (including, for example, some of the different media/control keys on my laptop keyboard, binnds for window and tab management, running dfferent commands or scripts, and much more).
Things I want to do soon that I haven't yet and might actually not unless I miraculously remember to do one of these things somehow:
- more custom scripts (I have a script to generate a power menu for Rofi that I quite like. I want to do more things like that).
- scripts to generate project templates (e.g. flask, caddy, whatever)
- able to unlock with Yubikey
- make small setup script for entire system with options to select packages I want/don't want
