- compton with blur
- pywal
- feh
- imagemagick (for generating colored icons)
Copy the configs to their respective locations. Then edit ~/.config/awesome/autorun.sh to suit your system.
For example I use light-locker to lock my screenånd I also have a couple of locker scripts in the /scripts directory to help with that.
Also take a look at .config/awesome/thangs/keys.lua and adjust your keybindings to suit your needs.
I suggest using Xephyr to test the config/settings:(Ctl+Shift to capture keyboard/mouse)
Xephyr -screen 1440x990 :5 & sleep 1; DISPLAY=:5 awesome
Run the script /scripts/setbg.sh with the full path to your image....
~/scripts/setbg.sh ~/Pictures/Wallpaper/hyper-beast.png - for example
The script will create a pywal scheme, set the wallpaper and tweak the color of the icons in .config/awesome/themes
Restart Awesome to see the changes to the icons (default keymap is Mod+Ctl+r)
Sometimes the colors will not have enough contrast, adjust .config/rofi and .config/awesome/rc.lua to adjust.
Included is a colors.html file which loads the wal colors.css file. This is good for reference as it displays the colors, color-name and it's hex value. Just remember to change the path in the link tag to your home directory
