My personal configuration files and scripts for a Arch Linux + KDE environment.
Steps that need to be taken in order to setup the environment. This is not aimed at being customizable. It's just a list for my personal use so that I have something to follow when I need to setup a new environment. Will likely turn into a script in the future.
- Follow the Arch Linux installation guide.
In the "Install essencial packages" section, make sure to also install
networkmanager,neovim,sudoandgit - Login with root
systemctl enable NetworkManager.service && systemctl start NetworkManager.service- Connect to the Internet with
nmtui useradd -m mateuspasswd mateusEDITOR=neovim visudoand uncomment line for thewheelgroupusermod -aG wheel mateus- Logout and login as

sshfor GitHub authentication via theconfigfile - Run

- Configure
tmux - Configure
qutebrowser - Save web bookmarks independently of web browser
- Implement a "work mode". This'd be a mode that can be toggled in order to use more work optimized software. For instance, use i3 + qutebrowser instead of Chrome + Kwin. It'd be cool for times when I want to use my computer more casually or for when other people need to use it for some reason.
- Add some cool themes with color schemes
- Add some cool screenshots to the README (e.g. fastfetch, maybe make it automatic?)
- Turn setup section into a script. Would also be cool to have tests for this setup script. Maybe via a CI/CD pipeline?
