My Ayu Themed Arch Linux Dotfiles 🎨

A collection of my personal dotfiles for a consistent and beautiful Ayu-themed experience on Arch Linux with the Niri compositor.

On the fly Light/Dark theme switch included (Experimental).

🚀 Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/Andrey0189/arch-dotfiles
   cd arch-dotfiles

2. Run the installation script:

   ./install.sh

   Note: You must install the Tmux Plugin Manager manually:

   mkdir -p ~/.config/tmux/plugins && git clone https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tpm ~/.config/tmux/plugins/tpm

The script will back up your existing configuration files to ~/.config/filename.bak and ~/.zshrc.bak before copying the new files.
