Welcome to my dotfiles. I’m gh0stzk from Mexico.

These dotfiles are designed with the goal of providing a bspwm environment that is lightweight, efficient, and functional, tailored for any use—whether it’s gaming, web browsing, or a productive work setting.

You’ll have 18 unique themes to choose from, each with its own style, colors, and navigation bar options. With this variety, you’re sure to find one that suits your preferences and needs.

I already started writing the Wiki, you should give it a read. If it is your first time with a WM, you may be interested in reading First steps after installing the dotfiles or maybe read frequently asked questions and answers Keybinds Firefox Theme.

Change themes on the fly

^{You can switch themes instantly, with no need to restart your session or environment. With just one click, the change is applied immediately.}

Consistency Across the Environment

^{Each theme not only changes the appearance of bspwm but also instantly transforms the color scheme in terminals (Alacritty & Kitty), eww widgets, polybar bars, notifications, gtk theme, launchers and more. Visual harmony is guaranteed in every corner of your system.}

^{The lockscreen automatically adapts to the active theme and offers two locking options: it can capture the current screen with a blur effect, or use a specific wallpaper depending on the selected theme.}

Variety of Wallpapers

^{Each login surprises you with a randomly selected wallpaper specifically tailored to the theme in use. But if surprises aren't your thing, our wallpaper menu lets you choose from over 5 exclusive wallpapers for each theme.}

Scratchpad

^{A scratchpad is a tool designed to provide quick, temporary access to applications or notes without disrupting the desktop workflow. When activated, the scratchpad appears over the current workspace, allowing the user to access applications like a terminal, text editor, or any configured tool. Minimizing it hides the scratchpad from view but keeps it running in the background, ready to be reopened with a simple keyboard shortcut.}

^{It's ideal for quick note-taking, running commands, or accessing auxiliary tools without losing focus on the current task.}
