πŸ”§ Setup

πŸͺŸ GlazeWM

Warning

This setup uses an earlier version of GlazeWM and is not compatible with the latest release.
As a result, it will not work with the new Zebar integration.

  • Install GlazeWM v2.
  • Copy the windots/.config/.glaze-wm/config.yaml to your GlazeWM configuration directory:
    • C:\Users\<Username>\.glaze-wm
  • Restart GlazeWM for the changes to take effect.

πŸ“ VSCode

  • Install the following extensions for improving the UI of VSCode:

  • Copy windots/.config/vscode/settings.json to your VSCode user configuration directory:

    • On Windows: C:\Users\<Username>\AppData\Roaming\Code\User\settings.json
    • On WSL2: ~/.vscode-server/data/Machine/settings.json
  • Restart VSCode to load the updated settings.

πŸ¦… Windhawk

  • Install Windhawk.
  • Copy the Windhawk configuration files from windots/.config/windhawk/
  • Apply the tweaks from the Windhawk UI.

πŸš€ Flow Launcher

  • Install Flow Launcher
  • Copy windots/.config/flowlauncher/Settings.json to the Flow Launcher config directory:
    • C:\Users\<Username>\AppData\Roaming\FlowLauncher\Settings\Settings.json
  • Restart Flow Launcher

>_ Terminal & Shell Setup

πŸ–₯️ Windows Terminal

  • Install Windows Terminal
  • Copy windots/.config/terminal/settings.json to the terminal configuration directory:
    • C:\Users\<Username>\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.WindowsTerminal_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\settings.json
  • Restart Windows Terminal to see the updated configurations.

🐚 PowerShell

  • Copy windots/.config/WindowsPowershell/Microsoft.PowerShell_profile.ps1 to your PowerShell profile directory:
    • C:\Users\<Username>\Documents\WindowsPowershell\Microsoft.PowerShell_profile.ps1
  • Restart PowerShell to apply the changes.

🎨 Oh My Posh

winget install JanDeDobbeleer.OhMyPosh -s winget
  • Copy windots/.config/ohmyposh/zen.toml to your Oh My Posh themes directory:

    • C:\Users\<Username>\.config\ohmyposh\zen.toml
  • Optional Step: Skip this if you applied my PowerShell config.

    • I have already included the command to set the theme in the PowerShell profile, so there's no need to do it manually. The following command is automatically applied when PowerShell starts:
oh-my-posh init pwsh --config 'C:\Users\<Username>\.config\ohmyposh\zen.toml' | Invoke-Expression

βš™οΈ Fastfetch

winget install fastfetch
  • Copy windots/.config/fastfetch/config.conf to your Fastfetch configuration directory:

    • C:\Users\<Username>\.config\fastfetch\config.conf
  • Run fastfetch.
