Awesome WM customizer/configurator
u/BaigGam3rss I still have some work to do to make my own widgets but you probably start with the documentation [1][2]. And then look at some other projects that use Awesome API to build widgets (ex: [3][4][5][6][7]).

Newbie to window manager, why use awesome over other dynamic wm ?
Awesome is very different from other window managers...It's a framework window manager! Through its API you can create widgets that are not possible in other WMs (ex: [1],[2],[3].[4]). Furthermore, AwesomeWM can be used as a tiling window managers and as a stacking window managers (like XFCE).

animations
KwesomeDE - as well as implementing what seems like his own animations and reinventing a few more wheels than I think will practically ever work outside his own system, though thoroughly interesting.

Anyone know where to find a theme like this for GNOME? It looks so dang clean!
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/ChocolateBread799/dotfiles ~/dotfiles ln -s ~/.dotfiles/awesome ~/.dotfiles/img ~/.dotfiles/rofi ~/.dotfiles/picom.conf ~/.config/
[I tried to see at least if the icons are part of a pack so you could install it in your popOS, turns out they are all custom. The repo is here, if you want to check it out.]

animations
ChocolateBread799's dotfiles - first of these configs whose dev found out about Dribbble it seems, prompting the knockoff neumorphic trend. Also of the JavaCafe01 vein of configurations (using the same organizational paradigm) as it seems JavaCafe01 deduced how to use Rubato and those who join the cool kids Discord channel are hip to the knowledge the rest of us, without need for socializing in the AwesomeWM crowd (I am over 30, I can barely tolerate having one friend and a gf, let alone people as interested in Awesome as I am). Rubato is in the configuration but the short examination I performed in preparing this for you, I could not find an implementation example, so not sure how actually helpful this maybe.
