Colors

I am using pywal to control the colors of my terminal (main functionality of pywal) as well as of my window manager.

To change the colors of the window manager I wrote a short Python script, that loads the pywal cached color scheme into a list, which is then used in my Qtile configuration file. If you are interested you can find the script here.

To change the wallpaper you can use the wal -i {file} command within the terminal or use the bw command within ranger. To apply the new colors to qtile only restart the environment (Alt+Ctrl+r).

Wallpaper

The wallpapers for the screenshots are in the wallpaper folder. I got them from a collection from Luke Smith, that I downloaded some years ago.

How I manage my Dotfiles Repository

I do it with a bare git repository and would engourage you to do the same. Just check following links (I recommend watching the video from Derek Taylor/DistroTube for better understanding):
