My DWM setup

DWM is a dynamic window manager made by the Suckless team. This is my own configuration of this window manager. Warning: this setup is NOT "just works". You may need to edit some scripts and configs.

Applied patches:

Themes:

Used fonts:

Font Awesome 6 Solid
JetBrains Mono Medium

Pre-installation

Edit scrpits/startdwm to change startup commands.
Rename dwm/config.dark.h to dwm/config.h if you prefer dark theme.
Edit dwm/config.h to change default terminal, fonts, window rules, keybinds etc.

Installation

git clone link
cd my-dwm
sudo chmod +x ./install.sh 
./install.sh

Do NOT execute ./install.sh as root

Then add this to your .xinitrc or create a new session

exec startdwm

Post-installation

Set DWM directory in the scripts/restartdwm for proper restart.
Change autostart commands in the scripts/startdwm.
Change bar output in scripts/ubar.
Enjoy!
