  • Awesome WM customizer/configurator
    9 projects | /r/awesomewm | 20 Feb 2023
    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]).
  • Network manager?

    I found the wireless widget from https://github.com/Kasper24/KwesomeDE quite nice.

  • Newbie to window manager, why use awesome over other dynamic wm ?
    6 projects | /r/awesomewm | 20 Dec 2022
    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).

    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.

    nuxshed's dotfiles - of the JavaCafe01 vein, in particular pursuing the knockoff Neumorphic codepen look (that isn't actually Neumorphism as no object has a 3D appearance...) but this dev's code is relatively easy to parse the tea leaves of and if you dial back the Git history, you should be able to deduce something about implementing Rubato.

  • Question about LuaSnip Custom Snippets in NVChad
    3 projects | /r/neovim | 26 Oct 2021
    This is the way I have set it up as well, mostly because I made them before i was using LuaSnip and I'm too lazy to convert them all to lua.
  • lsp-saga alternatives
    4 projects | /r/neovim | 7 Oct 2021
    hover, rename, code actions are all built into neovim. I liked lspsaga's rename popup, so i tried to recreate it from scratch. For code actions. im using telescope.
