Miso What's your current setup? (Computer, OS?)

🧐 Nrmn Main driver is a fairly new Dell XPS 13 Developer Edition. I threw Ubuntu off board though because I prefer my Void Linux setup. I'm not using any desktop environment. I use DWM, st and tmux. Things either happen in the shell or the browser. Browsers are, with few exceptions like Gimp and darktable, almost the only GUI applications I use. You can find my configs on github.com/nkoehri...

Miso wow - i'm really curious what it looks like having no desktop environment.

🧐 Nrmn No problem, here you go: reddit.com/r/unixp...

Miso it's stunning actually...

🚴 Aditya @n4n I'm actually tempted to try dwm next time I start from scratch (probably some time next year). How hard was it to get something usable going? For reference, I currently use i3 and my GUI reliance is due to firefox, vlc, and a couple of messaging applications.

🧐 Nrmn The thing about DWM is that the configuration is done in source code and I usually don't change anything except keybindings and colours. No layout config or anything fancy because this is exactly the way I want it to be. You might want to read about tagging window managers.

🚴 Aditya Yeah, I found that out, and I'd like to keep it under 2000 SLOC after making any customizations. So I think I'll be sticking close to stock myself...

🧐 Nrmn Conveniently there's also a list of patches for some extra functionality that you might like. I personally didn't add any patches but was looking at some of the bar functionality. I might patch in things like clickable bar sections.

🚴 Aditya Neat! I'll check it out some more. Thanks a ton!
