CAUTION: If I've paid a dollar for every time I've seen similar expression like the following, I would've been paid at least 10 bucks but as they always say: "Don't blindly apply these dotfiles unless you know what you're doing."
Review the code first, change the setting accordingly, and apply it on your own.
* https://github.com/jethrokuan/dots/ for his Emacs and Org Mode writing setup.
He also has a dedicated series on his https://blog.jethro.dev/[blog site] if you want the juicy details.
* https://www.reddit.com/r/unixporn/ obviously.
* Specifically for https://www.reddit.com/r/unixporn/comments/8ezsq7/bspwm_terminal_tabs_in_polybar_dark_and_dull_exam/[the tabbed terminals idea] and the https://github.com/Nikzt/dotfiles[linked dotfiles repo]) (not yet implemented, still cleaning up my stuff)

Take note that the screenshots does not represent the daily look of the desktop since I always change the wallpaper and the colorschemes with https://github.com/dylanaraps/pywal[Pywal].
For future references, the version by the time first writing the script is at v3.8.1.
That said, I may rewrite this in Bash instead or even just a makefile.]
footnote:[I may also making my life harder when I can use something like https://yadm.io/[yadm] or https://developer.atlassian.com/blog/2016/02/best-way-to-store-dotfiles-git-bare-repo/[a bare git repo] instead.]
Aside from the scripts, there are also some details and files that are not committed to this setup for privacy and security reasons.
A few examples of which is my cron setups where it is tasked with updating and committing the package lists to the Git repo, updating the packages, cleaning the cache, and so much more.
* Config located at link:bspwm/[`bspwm/`] directory.
* The usual target path for a user is at `$HOME/.config/bspwm/`.
* Minimum version (from `bspwm --version`):
** `0.9.7-10-g2ffd9c1`
* Simply contains `bspwmrc` which is an executable setting up bspwm-related settings and and starting up some applications.
However, the "true" version is stored as a https://github.com/dylanaraps/pywal/wiki/User-Template-Files[template file] for pywal (located at link:wal/templates/bspwmrc[`wal/templates/bspwmrc`]).
* This allows for a modular setup.
For using keybindings, it uses `sxhkd` (Simple X Hotkey Daemon).
For something similar to i3-bar, https://github.com/polybar/polybar[polybar] serves as the replacement.
* This package is really a https://github.com/hlissner/doom-emacs[Doom Emacs]-based configuration more than the vanilla config so you need to install it first before touching the config with your grubby hands.
Just run the following command `git clone https://github.com/hlissner/doom-emacs ~/.emacs.d && ~/.emacs.d/bin/doom install` and it should take care of the rest.
* Config located at link:emacs/[`emacs/`].
* The ideal target path for a user is at `$HOME/.config/doom`.
* Minium version (from `emacs --version`):
** `GNU Emacs 26.3`
** For Doom Emacs, it's not particularly important since it's in rolling release but for future references, it is from the `develop` branch at commit https://github.com/hlissner/doom-emacs/commit/efa599f076c3a140c6b4006c352fdba3361abebd[`efa599f076c3a140c6b4006c352fdba3361abebd`] accessed at 2020-04-24.
* The Doom configs are just the default config so there's not much to go through here.
I may also add snippet files in there.
* Regarding theming Doom Emacs, I've found mainly two ways.
** First is simply using https://gitlab.com/jjzmajic/ewal[ewal] but the resulting colors are not pretty IMO and I haven't found a way to customize it aside from forking and modifying the package itself.
** Second is simply generating the Doom Emacs theme file myself;
I have a https://gitlab.com/foo-dogsquared/doom-theme-generator[small script] that is generates one from the Pywal color scheme.
** Or simply don't and use https://gitlab.com/protesilaos/modus-themes[modus-themes] instead for that light customization options.
* Config located at link:nvim/[`nvim/`] directory.
* The usual target path for a user is at `$HOME/.config/nvim`.
* Minimum version (from `nvim --version`):
** `NVIM v0.4.3`
* Uses https://github.com/junegunn/vim-plug[`vim-plug`] as the plugin manager.
* Contains my plugin list and editor configurations in `init.vim`.
* There are also some https://github.com/sirver/UltiSnips[UltiSnips] snippets stored in `own-snippets` folder (since `snippets` is a reserved folder name).
* One of the largest snippet file is the snippets for LaTeX files.
It is based on https://github.com/gillescastel/latex-snippets/[_Gilles Castel_'s UltiSnips LaTeX snippets].
A window compositor forked from https://github.com/chjj/compton[compton] that adds off-screen buffers and additional effects and animations to the window.
* There is only the standalone config (might decide to make it modular) and the launch script which is copied from the https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Polybar[related Arch Wiki entry].
The theme is dynamically used with the Xresources file (by using `xrdb`).
For documentation, check out the https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Polybar[already linked Arch Wiki entry] and the https://github.com/polybar/polybar/wiki[official documentation from GitHub].
* The usual target path for a user is at `$HOME/.config/wal`.
It is ideal that you've already have your own color schemes saved in there as well.
* Minimum version (from `wal --version`):
** `wal 3.3.0`
* Due to the nature of my setup where I want those consistent colors, most of the configurations are tucked away as https://github.com/dylanaraps/pywal/wiki/User-Template-Files[template files] but it should be easy to identify which is which.
Certain applications such as for `dunst` and `bspwm` are in here and should be considered as the real version of the config.
* The usual target path is at `$HOME/.config/sxhkd`.
* Minimum version (from `sxhkd --version`):
** `0.6.0-3-g7124055`
* Contains a config file (`sxhkdrc`) for the keybindings.
There are some keybindings specifically used for `bspwm`.
=== https://www.x.org/wiki/[Xorg]
A display server implementing X window system.
* Config found at link:xorg/[`xorg/`] directory.
* The usual target path for a user is at `$HOME/`.
* Minimum version (from `Xorg -version`):
** `X.Org X Server 1.20.5`
** `X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0`
* The configuration is found at `.Xresources` containing the colors (0 to 15, foreground, and the background).
=== https://www.zsh.org/[Zsh]
A Unix shell and an alternative to the Bash.
Mostly chosen due to its wide options for customization compared to GNU Bash.
* Config found at link:zsh/[`zsh/`] directory.
* The usual target path for a user is at `$HOME/`.
* Minimum version (from `zsh --version`):
** `zsh 5.7.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu)`
* Contains `.zprofile` and `.zshrc`.
The primary file to look for is the `.profile` to set environment variables independent of the shell setups.
* Previously relied on https://github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/[oh-my-zsh].
Eventually, the config became independent and can work without it.
For the documentation, check out the manual entry for `zsh` to gain an overview of the shell.
The documentation itself is massive and comprehensive.
The main manual explains some things such as the startup/shutdown files and compatibility with other shells.
It also lays out the sections of the manual which you can check it out.
Since the manual has been split into multiple sections, it can be daunting to navigate.
The most referred sections by far are `zshmisc` where it gives details on the miscellanea of zsh such as the prompt and special variables you might want to know.
The other section is `zshbuiltins` where it explains built-in commands of zsh.
For coding with Zsh, look into the http://zsh.sourceforge.net/Doc/Release/index.html[Zsh Manual].
