1 | # My Dotfiles |
| 2 | |
| 3 | This is the collection of dotfiles that I use on my laptop for ricing pourposes |
| 4 | |
| 5 | ## Getting Started |

7 | Most of these files will go in your home directory. See [Installing](#Installing) for a brief description of where to put each file in this repository. |

| 9 | ### Prerequisites |
| 10 | |
| 11 | You should know how linux works at least a little bit, but you can use this setup as your starting point, so Bash is a must. |
| 7abef725 |
12 | I use [Slackware](http://www.slackware.com/) since 2006, so you'll have to adapt everything if you're using another distro. As for the software used here you have it: |

13 | |

14 | * [i3](https://i3wm.org/) - My window manager of choice. |
| fdd76fc5 |
15 | * [feh](https://feh.finalrewind.org/) - wallpaper setter. Fast and lightweight. |
| fdd76fc5 |
16 | * [rofi](https://github.com/davatorium/rofi) - Extremely customizable dmenu replacement, I use the git version. |
| 7abef725 |
17 | * [picom](https://github.com/yshui/picom) - Lightweight compositor. |
| 18 | * [polybar](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/) - Lightweight but highly configurable bar. |

| 20 | ### Installing |
| 21 | |
| 22 | The **bin** directory is where we'll store all executables, so you may want to add it to your path, otherwhise you could use something like `/usr/local/bin`, but make sure to fix every reference to your executables in the other files. |
| 23 | |
| 7abef725 |
24 | **i3**, **conky**, **rofi** and **polybar** directories must go inside your `~/.config` directory, this is standard and you shouldn't have any problems with it. |
| fdd76fc5 |
25 | |
| 26 | **Xresources**, **bash_profile**, **bashrc** and **xinitrc** are all hidden files and you should place them in your home prepending a dot to their names, so everything should look like this: |
| 27 | ``` |
| 28 | $> ls /home/danix |
| 29 | .Xresources |
| 30 | .bash_profile |
| 31 | .bashrc |
| 32 | .xinitrc |
| 33 | [...] |
| 34 | ``` |
| 7abef725 |
35 | |

36 | Here's how it looks for me on a fresh install: |
