  • Learning Haskell and using xmonad
    1 project | /r/linux4noobs | 13 Jun 2023
    I've been using xmonad since ~2020 and I mostly learned from his videos and the official documentation/reading other peoples config files. You can check out mine at https://github.com/MikunoNaka/dots (in the .config/XMonad folder)

  • Build script with dbus using stack
    3 projects | /r/xmonad | 5 Apr 2021
    I followed the instructions on this post, which sets ~/.xmonad as a stack project. I set xmonad-log (also tried with haskell-dbus) in the stack.yml as an extra-dep However, it is not working for me.
  • Updating a module in xmobar

    As an aside, you should use the bar you're most comfortable with. Sure most people use xmobar, but the point of xmonad is that you can create your favourite computing environment :) If you prefer polybar then it's not terribly hard to get it to work with xmonad. You can either send what you want down a pipe and let polybar read from that pipe or you can use something like xmonad-dbus to let them talk via dbus.
