awesome-copycats VS EasyAwesomeWM

Not sure how I can start applications in /etc/xdg/autostart/ in awesomeWM. Have this in my rc.lua (from lcpz/awesome-copycats rc.lua.template): awful.spawn.with_shell(

I wouldn't pick a distro based on this. If you want a pre-config check out awesomewm-copycats

I'm working from a theme from here: https://github.com/lcpz/awesome-copycats/tree/master/themes that I've tweaked a little bit. So there are two files involved:

You can look at the docs for awful.wibar to see all of the options, and have a look at some example configs like awesome-copycats to see what's possible and actual examples of how the wibar options are used.

https://github.com/lcpz/awesome-copycats Powerline-Dark is the theme used here.

Start exploring official documentation, there is section about default configuration. You can also take a look at existing themes like awesome-copycats or manilaromes glorious dotfiles and see how they do things and start experimenting.

Hi, I've been using awesome for some months already, most of the confix coming from https://github.com/lcpz/awesome-copycats.

My config is mostly based on awesome-copycats with some custom additions.

https://github.com/Drostina/EasyAwesomeWM might be what you want.

Navigating the api docs and this list of configs is so treacherous that I've considered what's probably a terrible idea of starting with https://github.com/Drostina/EasyAwesomeWM.

This repo set me on a very constructive path with Awesome: https://github.com/Drostina/EasyAwesomeWM

I've been getting ready to adopt awesomewm into my software family... "getting ready" means way too much research for having not yet fiddled with it at all... and found https://github.com/Drostina/EasyAwesomeWM which might be informative or useful as a starting point.

I haven't seen many around but I have made one for ubuntu based distros. However you can just download the dotfiles and it should be a decent experience out of the box. Its based on awesomewm: https://github.com/Drostina/EasyAwesomeWM
