Since January 31, 2021, I do maintain and develop the i3wm setup used on the EndeavourOS ISO
To be honest … it starts earlier already while still helping on Antergos in Jun 1, 2018:
https://github.com/killajoe/i3-antergos
The main reason is that I do use i3 as the base of my personal Desktop for a very long time already.
From that knowledge I had the idea to set up a basic simple setup with nicely documented config files for users to start tinkering with i3wm. What starts getting into the EndeavourOS ISO is not really that minimal of a setup, more like a Desktop build with i3wm.
As of April 2024 it has 409 stars and 109 forks on GitHub ! And is a widely loved and used variant users take to install EndeavourOS.
We can see 33 contributors https://github.com/endeavouros-team/endeavouros-i3wm-setup/graphs/contributors that’s something making me proud and feeling honored!
Starting as a small idea, it has grown to a useful startup for users searching to try something different.
It would not be what it is today, without all the help, hints, ideas and contributions added by users.
A huge thanks to all of you!
I will use this to share some news about the setup in the future, like now some changes on Rofi:
Rofi Menus now have changeable Color schemes/Themes [13.Mai 2024]
Up from package Version 2.1 https://github.com/endeavouros-team/endeavouros-i3wm-setup/releases/tag/2.1 you can change the colors for all EndeavourOS i3wm Rofi menu apps:
- dmenu (Desktop App menu)
- powermenu (logout reboot hibernate menu)
- powersaving menu (power-profiles-daemon profile switcher)
- keyhint keybind menu (F1 menu)
Very little change to dunst (notifier) [18. Mai 2024]
# Display indicators for URLs (U) and actions (A).
As of why ? Always looks like this “indicators” are replacements for missing icons or something…
