I will list all the software that I am using and why. The reason that I am doing this now is that I feel that the best way to enjoy Linux is with tiling window managers, however they are quite a pain to set up. I am going to end up forgetting why I installed specific packages and what I am doing with them. This way I will have a history of essential packages so that I always remember. ## Usage This script will require you get through to a minimal install of arch. Since the arch install script has gotten better it makes a lot more sense for this to be a post install set up. ## Packages Desktop Environment and Utilities ### Shell - zsh ### Graphics Drivers - nvidia proprietary drivers - xorg - All xorg utils - xrandr - xinput/libinput ### Audio Drivers #### Base Drivers - pipewire - wireplumber - pavucontrol #### Bluetooth - bluez - blueman ### Desktop Environment (i3wm) Window Manager that I personally prefer. - Terminal: kitty - Display Manager: sddm - Clipboard: xclip - File Manager: TBD - Terminal File Manager: lf - Screenshot Utility: flameshot - Encryption: gnupg with gpgagent - Theming: lxappearance - Password Manager: keepassxc - Wallpaper: nitrogen - Printers: TBD - Compositor: picom - Status bar: Polybar(for now) ### Neovim - Telescope - ripgrep - fzf - Mason - git - url or wget - unzip - grep - tar - gzip ### Steam
