arch-dotfiles

My personal Arch Linux + GNOME dotfiles, managed with chezmoi.

GNOME extensions Dash to Dock — macOS-style dock Blur my Shell — blurred panel, overview & dock Open Bar — top-bar theming Just Perfection — fine-grained shell tweaks Vitals — CPU / temp / RAM in the bar Hide Top Bar — auto-hide the top bar Tray Icons: Reloaded — legacy tray icons Move Clock — clock to the left Enable list: gnome/extensions.txt.

CLI tools eza — modern ls bat — cat with syntax highlighting fd — friendly find fzf — fuzzy finder zoxide — smarter cd starship — shell prompt mise — runtime / version manager yay — AUR helper

What's in here

Path	Maps to	Contents
dot_bashrc	~/.bashrc	starship / mise / zoxide / fzf + aliases
dot_gitconfig	~/.gitconfig	git config
private_dot_config/	~/.config/	starship, mise, gh, git, gtk-3/4, fontconfig
gnome/dconf.ini	—	full GNOME dump (theme, keybinds, dock, extensions)
gnome/extensions.txt	—	enabled shell extensions
system/keyd/	/etc/keyd/	Caps Lock → WASD arrow layer
pkglist.txt	—	explicitly-installed pacman packages

gnome/, system/, screenshots/, pkglist.txt, and README.md live in the repo but are kept out of $HOME via .chezmoiignore.

Install

sudo pacman -S --needed - < pkglist.txt              # packages
chezmoi init --apply https://github.com/ado11231/arch-dotfiles.git
mise install

Then restore the rest.

GNOME desktop — theme, keybinds, dock & extension settings:

dconf load / < gnome/dconf.ini
# then enable the extensions from gnome/extensions.txt and log out/in

GTK theme (WhiteSur):

yay -S whitesur-gtk-theme
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface gtk-theme 'WhiteSur-Dark'

keyd — Caps Lock → WASD arrow layer:

sudo cp system/keyd/default.conf /etc/keyd/default.conf
sudo systemctl enable --now keyd
