🔧 Setup

🪟 GlazeWM

Warning

This setup uses an earlier version of GlazeWM and is not compatible with the latest release.
As a result, it will not work with the new Zebar integration.

• Install GlazeWM v2.
• Copy the windots/.config/.glaze-wm/config.yaml to your GlazeWM configuration directory:
  • C:\Users\<Username>\.glaze-wm
• Restart GlazeWM for the changes to take effect.

📝 VSCode

• Install the following extensions for improving the UI of VSCode:

  • Catppuccin
  • APC Customize UI
  • GlassIt-VSC (If you want a transparent/glass effect)

• Copy windots/.config/vscode/settings.json to your VSCode user configuration directory:

  • On Windows: C:\Users\<Username>\AppData\Roaming\Code\User\settings.json
  • On WSL2: ~/.vscode-server/data/Machine/settings.json

• Restart VSCode to load the updated settings.

🦅 Windhawk

• Install Windhawk.
• Copy the Windhawk configuration files from windots/.config/windhawk/
• Apply the tweaks from the Windhawk UI.

🚀 Flow Launcher

• Install Flow Launcher
• Copy windots/.config/flowlauncher/Settings.json to the Flow Launcher config directory:
  • C:\Users\<Username>\AppData\Roaming\FlowLauncher\Settings\Settings.json
• Restart Flow Launcher

>_ Terminal & Shell Setup

🖥️ Windows Terminal

• Install Windows Terminal
• Copy windots/.config/terminal/settings.json to the terminal configuration directory:
  • C:\Users\<Username>\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.WindowsTerminal_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\settings.json
• Restart Windows Terminal to see the updated configurations.

🐚 PowerShell

• Copy windots/.config/WindowsPowershell/Microsoft.PowerShell_profile.ps1 to your PowerShell profile directory:
  • C:\Users\<Username>\Documents\WindowsPowershell\Microsoft.PowerShell_profile.ps1
• Restart PowerShell to apply the changes.

🎨 Oh My Posh

• Install Oh My Posh using winget:

winget install JanDeDobbeleer.OhMyPosh -s winget

• Copy windots/.config/ohmyposh/zen.toml to your Oh My Posh themes directory:

  • C:\Users\<Username>\.config\ohmyposh\zen.toml

• Optional Step: Skip this if you applied my PowerShell config.

  • I have already included the command to set the theme in the PowerShell profile, so there's no need to do it manually. The following command is automatically applied when PowerShell starts:

oh-my-posh init pwsh --config 'C:\Users\<Username>\.config\ohmyposh\zen.toml' | Invoke-Expression

⚙️ Fastfetch

• Install fastfetch using winget:

winget install fastfetch

• Copy windots/.config/fastfetch/config.conf to your Fastfetch configuration directory:

  • C:\Users\<Username>\.config\fastfetch\config.conf

• Run fastfetch.
