manish0467's dotfiles

Personal configuration for an Arch Linux desktop running Omarchy (Hyprland), managed with GNU Stow for clean, reversible symlinks.

Screenshots

Coming soon.

What's here

Package	What it is	Installs to
zsh	Zsh config (secrets stay in ~/.zshrc.local)	~/.zshrc
starship	Starship prompt	~/.config/starship.toml
omarchy	Omarchy desktop shell — bar (shell.json), menus, spotlight, lock & boot screen designs	~/.config/omarchy/ (selected files)
hypr	Hyprland on Omarchy 4 — Lua configs, shaders, scripts	~/.config/hypr
bin	Custom scripts (launchers, media control, wallpapers…)	~/.local/bin/
nvim	Neovim	~/.config/nvim
qutebrowser	Qutebrowser incl. bookmarks and greasemonkey scripts	~/.config/qutebrowser
waybar	Waybar config and variants	~/.config/waybar, ~/.local/share/waybar
yazi	Yazi file manager + Catppuccin flavor	~/.config/yazi
rofi / tofi	Launchers used by the bin scripts	~/.config/rofi, ~/.config/tofi

Each package directory mirrors $HOME:

qutebrowser/
└── .config/
    └── qutebrowser/

Requirements

All package names below are the real Arch packages (resolved via pacman -Qo on a live Omarchy install).

1. Deploying the dotfiles:

sudo pacman -S --needed git stow

2. Programs the packages configure — install only what you plan to stow:

Package	Program	Arch package
zsh	Zsh shell	zsh
starship	Starship prompt	starship
hypr	Hyprland + Omarchy 4 Lua config	ships with Omarchy
nvim	Neovim	neovim
qutebrowser	Qutebrowser browser	qutebrowser
yazi	Yazi file manager	yazi
rofi / tofi	App launchers	rofi, tofi
ghostty / alacritty	Terminals	ghostty, alacritty
tmux	Terminal multiplexer	tmux
mpv / mpd	Media player / music daemon	mpv, mpd
btop	System monitor	btop
waybar	Status bar — legacy, Omarchy 4 uses its own shell	waybar (optional)

One-shot for everything except waybar:

sudo pacman -S --needed zsh starship neovim qutebrowser yazi rofi tofi \
  ghostty alacritty tmux mpv mpd btop

3. Dependencies used by the bin/ scripts:

sudo pacman -S --needed libnotify mpc libpulse brightnessctl imagemagick \
  slurp jq wl-clipboard fd

A few older scripts additionally use pywal, swww, swappy, hyprshade, dunst, or light (AUR) — install those only if you run the specific scripts that need them.

Installation

git clone https://github.com/manish0467/dotfiles.git ~/dotfiles
cd ~/dotfiles

# stow only what you need…
stow -t ~ zsh starship

# …or everything at once
stow -t ~ bin hypr nvim qutebrowser waybar yazi zsh starship omarchy \
          ghostty alacritty rofi tofi mpv tmux mpd git btop

To remove a package's symlinks:

stow -D -t ~ <package>

Important

Always stow from the repo root targeting ~ (stow -t ~ <pkg>). Never stow -t ~/.config — that creates misplaced symlinks like ~/.config/.config.

Notes

• Secrets are never committed. zsh/.zshrc sources ~/.zshrc.local (untracked, chmod 600) for API keys.
• Omarchy 4 uses Lua configs. In hypr/, the .lua files are live; the remaining .conf files (hyprsunset, xdph, hypridle) are read by their own daemons.
• Theme switches and GUI settings dirty the repo — Omarchy writes through the symlinks (e.g. shell.json, terminal colors). Commit the churn when it suits you; *.bak* files are gitignored.
• A few files contain machine-specific paths (e.g. mpd/mpd.conf) — adjust after cloning on other machines.
• Preview changes safely with a dry run: stow -n -v -t ~ <package>.
