My dotfiles for LFS. Codenamed Nihil.

NOTE: The below commands were designed for bash; they may or may not work in other shells. Additionally, the commands should be executed as the user whose dotfiles you are targetting. I.e., don't run them as root unless you want the root user to have an i3 config for some reason.

NOTE: Noto fonts (emoji and cjk) are recommended but not provided.

The below commands install the dotfiles.

To use my NightTab config, install the NightTab extension in your browser. Open a new tab, enter the NightTab settings and, under data, click import from file. Select nighttab-nihil.json from the extra folder in this repo.

To use my Sidebery config, install the Sidebery extension in your browser. Open the Sidebery settings and import the sidebery-nihil.json.

To install my Obsidian theme, run the following command from the repo folder (assuming your Obsidian vault is ~/Vault):

cp -riv extra/Obsidian/Nihil ~/Vault/.obsidian/themes/

I won't be sharing my Obsidian setup, but feel free to copy or take inspiration from the showcase video.

Huge thanks to Alepheia and Zani for inspiring me to try LFS. Thank you to Zeckma for creating and helping me through the GLFS book. I'd also like to thank the maintainers of the LFS{,-multilib} and BLFS books for making this possible, as well as the AUR maintainers whose PKGBUILDs I referenced for TLFS. Also thank you to the members of the LFS Discord for being cool people :)

You can reverse image search to try to find the sources. I don't remember where I got most of them anyway.

The only custom font used is Iosevka Nerd Font.

Most of the themes are just edits of Catppuccin's various themes, with colors inspired by the color palette in Alepheia's LFS showcase.

Exceptions:

• The Rofi theme is an edit of the squared nord theme.
• The Neovim theme is NvChad with the yoru theme.

Issues:

• The Zathura theme has an issue with selection highlights. (I don't know how to make the highlights transparent.)
