My personal linux configuration

My dotfiles will install a fully-featured tiling window manager environment on any Arch Linux based system, with custom theming, gaming on linux, completely keyboard-centric functionality (vim-motions) and a lot more.

-> How to dual boot arch linux and Windows 10/11 using archinstall script (UPDATED)!!!!!!

Manual Installing Dotfiles

First you need to install ArchLinux with the archinstall script using the Hyprland profile.

Install Yay and Git

To configure and install the other packages and tools, you will have to install yay as the AUR helper and git for version control.

sudo pacman -S --needed git base-devel && git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/yay.git && cd yay && makepkg -si

Install ASDF, NodeJS and Yarn

Download ASDF from the original repository:

git clone https://github.com/asdf-vm/asdf.git ~/.asdf --branch v0.14.0

Add the following to ~/.zshrc:

. "$HOME/.asdf/asdf.sh"

Add NodeJS to the ASDF plugins list:

asdf plugin add nodejs

Install the latest version:

asdf install nodejs latest

Set the latest version of node globally:

asdf global nodejs latest

Finally install yarn:

npm --global install yarn

Install Base Packages

For the system to work correctly it's important to have all the following packages installed:

yay -Sy neovim thunar polkit polkit-gnome cliphist wl-clipboard ripgrep neofetch noto-fonts-emoji noto-fonts ttf-fira-sans ttf-fira-code ttf-firacode-nerd ttf-ia-writer otf-font-awesome ttf-jetbrains-mono-nerd ttf-jetbrains-mono zsh starship xdg-ninja kitty wget unzip xdg-user-dirs gtk3 htop slurp grim waybar pavucontrol swaylock swayidle pacseek gum swww ntfs-3g nsxiv mpv zathura rofi-lbonn-wayland papirus-icon-theme stow

Install Oh-My-Zsh!

To proceed run the following command

sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/master/tools/install.sh)"

Next, install the zsh autosuggestions plugin:

git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions \
  $ZSH_CUSTOM/plugins/zsh-autosuggestions

Then, install the zsh vi mode plugin:

git clone https://github.com/jeffreytse/zsh-vi-mode \
  $ZSH_CUSTOM/plugins/zsh-vi-mode

Install NvChad from the original repository

For neovim configuration I use NvChad as a base configuration.

git clone https://github.com/NvChad/NvChad ~/.config/nvim --depth 1 && nvim

Remove Unused Packages (Optional)

When installing Hyprland from the archinstall profile, a lot of unused packages will be installed, so to remove clutter you can remove these packages.

yay -R dolphin wofi nm-connection-editor

sudo pacman -Rsn $(pacman -Qdtq)

Install Gaming Packages (Optional)

Check the main source

Enable multilib in /etc/pacman.conf.

[multilib]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

Upgrade your system:

sudo pacman -Syu
