Simply download the repo:
git clone https://github.com/FrancescoXD/chadwm.git --depth 1 ~/.config/chadwm
cd ~/.config/chadwm/
And now if you want to skip all these parts below just start the installer script:
chmod +x install.sh
./install.sh
startx ~/.config/chadwm/scripts/run.sh
sx sh ~/.config/chadwm/scripts/run.sh
Change user
to your username in the chadwm.desktop
file.
sudo mkdir /usr/share/xsessions/ # if it doesn't exist
sudo mv chadwm.desktop /usr/share/xsessions/
You need to recompile dwm after every change you make to its source code.
cd ~/.config/chadwm/chadwm
make clean
sudo make install
- Bar : in
bar.sh
(line 9) andconfig.def.h
(line 35) - eww : in
eww.scss
(line 1) - rofi : in
config.rasi
(line 15)
First, make sure you have copied the eww directory to your config:
cp -r ~/.config/chadwm/eww ~/.config/
To launch the eww widget, you need the following command:
eww open eww
- If you use alsa to manage your audio, instead of pulseaudio or pipewire, you can also launch an alsa widget:
eww open alsa-gui
- It could be a good idea to add these lines to your autostart file, located at
~/.config/chadwm/scripts/run.sh
