dwm - dynamic window manager

dwm is an extremely fast, small, and dynamic window manager for X.

---

This is my personal dwm setup with following patches:

• cool autostart
• azerty
• custom keybindings and colors (see dwm/config.def.h for more details)
• hide vacant tags
• noborder
• pertag
• warp

Installation

git clone https://github.com/criticalsool/dwm-custom.git && \
cd dwm-custom/ && \
bash dwm.bash

Note

dwm.bash will install the dependencies, compile and install dwl, dmenu and slstatus. Nothing more, nothing less.

Tip

from_minimal.bash will start from a minimal Debian or Archlinux CLI installation and install and configure xorg and greetd in addition to execute dwm.bash.

git clone https://github.com/criticalsool/dwm-custom.git && \
cd dwm-custom/ && \
bash from_minimal.bash

Caution

It will also configure autologin and install a bunch of packages you might not want, to work with my dwm configuration. Please read it before

Distribution	dwm.bash	from_minimal.bash
Debian (13) trixie	✅	✅
Debian (12) bookworm	✅	✅

Tips

• Add flatpak application in dmenu

sudo ln -s /var/lib/flatpak/exports/bin/io.freetubeapp.FreeTube /usr/bin/freetube
