Overview

My dotfiles repository represents years of tweaking and optimization for a productive, distraction-free development environment. Built around i3wm with a focus on keyboard-driven workflows.

Key Components

• Window Manager: i3-gaps for clean tiling layout
• Terminal: Alacritty with custom colorscheme
• Shell: Zsh with minimal prompt
• Editor: Neovim with hand-picked plugins
• Status Bar: Custom polybar configuration

Philosophy

The setup follows a "less is more" approach - every tool and keybinding serves a purpose. No unnecessary animations or bloat, just pure functionality.

Configuration Highlights

# i3 config - focus follows mouse disabled
focus_follows_mouse no

# Smart gaps - only show when multiple containers
smart_gaps on
gaps inner 10
gaps outer 0

The color scheme uses a dark base with subtle accent colors, reducing eye strain during long coding sessions.
