My dotfiles using Arch Linux. Just for the time it takes to document this repository and configurations, this repo deserves one star!
Warning
The documentation is not yet well finished. There are still things to document and configure. However, I hope the configuration files can help you.

It is my personal setup, the way I like it, with configurations that are comfortable for me, applications... etc. Use it if you want as a template, as a guide. I will update it as I need to add new packages, configs...etc.
Important
There are still many things to configure, I will do it as I go. Mouse, trackpad, eww widgets... etc
And yes... all my commits in this repo you will see that they are called Wip 😀
The installation of Arch Linux has been carried out using archinstall. The official installation page is also very complete, everything and that using archinstall is more comfortable and makes the process easier.
Pre-flight checks 🚀
Once the usb is booted, connect the laptop to your local network (if not using ethernet cable).
iwctl station wlan0 get-networks # change wlan0 interface if needed. Type `$ ip a` if you don't know the name
iwctl station wlan0 connect SSID # put the SSID/BSSID with your corresponding local network
ping -c 1 1.1.1.1 # test connectivity
archinstall # start installationiwd official documentation

systemctl enable sshd
First setps after installation. Remove the usb from your computer and restart. Grub will launch the new archlinux distro, and a basic prompt (black window) will appear.
$ nmcli device wifi list
$ nmcli device wifi connect SSID_or_BSSID password SSID/BSSID-PASSWORD
# or use
$ nmcli device wifi connect -a
$ history -c$ cd /tmp
$ git clone https://github.com/containerscrew/dotfiles.git
$ cd dotfiles
$ bash setup.sh$ cd /tmp
$ git clone https://github.com/containerscrew/dotfiles.git
$ rsync -avzh --exclude='.git/' dotfiles/ [email protected]:/tmp/dotfiles/
# Then login to the server and execute the script setup.sh
ssh username@ip
bash /tmp/dotfiles/setup.shopenssh must be enabled
cd dotfiles/
rsync -avzhu config/* [email protected]:/home/username/.config/
# Or locally
rsync -avzhu config/* /home/username/.config/setup.sh will install main packages using pacman and paru. Also, will copy all config files in user home, will set some basic configs like firewall, lightdm theme...etc. Take a look!
All installation scripts are in the
installersfolder
Post intallation setps. Some work settings, and other stuff.
See postinstall.md
Pending to write documentation of BIOS settings. By the moment, protect BIOS settings with admin password.
