The README is outdated, I roughly wrote some changes but I will rewrite it once I have free time.

About

Kitty

My Kitty configuration is pretty much default with the exception of Gruvbox dark, soft (base16) theme and JetBrains Mono Nerd Font font.

Zsh

Zsh is my preferred shell, it is powerful, has a enourmous list of extensions, and overall offers a better experience than Bash. I use the following plugins in my Zsh.

Rofi

Rofi is an essential part for my setup, I use it as my application launcher and clipboard. Rofi provides a versatile and enhanced functionality to my workflow. I utilize the following plugins with Rofi:

Plugins:

Dunst

As for my notification daemon, I use dunst because of it's simplicity and ease of customizability.

My Dunst configuration uses; JetBrains Mono Nerd font and Win11-dark icons. I have also adjusted the color scheme of Dunst to better match my desktop aesthetics.
