the-glorious-dotfiles VS awesome-dotfiles

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).

Yes it is possible to do with Awesome API, some examples: https://github.com/rxyhn/yoru#ocean--gallery https://github.com/AlphaTechnolog/dotfiles/tree/awesomewm https://github.com/manilarome/the-glorious-dotfiles https://github.com/Kasper24/KwesomeDE

I have a popup volume slider whenever I hit a keybind, learnt from glorious's awesomewm

I 'm assuming you created the "switch_stop" tag? Unless, you're changing the taglist names (I don't see any purpose for the "id = switch_stop"). The tag names or 'id' in this context can be found here, https://github.com/manilarome/the-glorious-dotfiles/blob/master/config/awesome/linear/configuration/tags/init.lua .

I would also recommend read through other ppls configurations on GitHub like Manilarome, JavaCafe or even mine which I think are pretty decent

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 guys its my first time configuring a customized desktop and I chose these dotfiles because it looked simple and nice: https://github.com/WillPower3309/awesome-dotfiles. Theme and wallpaper load fine, but the left and upper bar dont work, and when I open a terminal the wpp overlaps it. Ive been checking config files with the system terminal but i dont know what to change/add so im basically lost. If someone can give me a hint or something Id appreciate it. Im using Arch (btw).

In case you didn't know these kinds of files are often called dotfiles (just because they're often named as something like .config) You can find people's personal dotfiles all over github or by just googling awesomewm dotfiles. I personally like Derek Taylor's (DistroTube) dotfiles, but I also found these right away by googling.

I'm using a premade config/dotfiles which can be found here - I'm using the 'mirage' theme.

Yes, it can go tiling, maximized and floating on each workspace individually Easy 10 terminals next to each other (usually in my configuration that was i borrowed from here it spawns at right, but i can move them easily, it's purely up to you how they would spawn)

I changed the css a little bit, that file is here: https://github.com/WillPower3309/awesome-dotfiles/blob/master/awesome/configuration/mirage/blurred.css
