Sway-Config

My current SwayWM Setup for Arch Linux. It uses bash Skripts and systemd-utilities. If you want to use it without them, help me improve it.

Includes:

customizable scripts for menu, screenshots, gammastep and other functions
many bindsyms (neo2 keyboard layout)
already set up to support xwayland and wine (for wine also see this issue)

Setting up

install dependencies
Place the files in .config in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME
make shell-scripts executable chmod u+x .config/sway/*.sh
edit the .config/sway/gammastep.ini to your timezone
edit the Output and Input Configuration in .config/sway/config, if neccessary
set Environment
start sway
further information can be found in the sway wiki

Dependencies:

install all with: sudo pacman -Syu alacritty wofi noto-fonts-emoji gammastep grim mako polkit-gnome slurp acpi playerctl
optional: xorg-xwayland

Recommended Environment

These Environment Variables are recommended for using sway:
export XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=sway
export XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland\

For a consistent Theme across GTK and QT applications you can also set the Adwaita theme (libadwaita) which also has a adwaita-qt version in the AUR.
