My attempt to create a desktop environment for Sway

Installation

There is no installation script yet, but in the meantime you can clone the repo and copy the contents of the ./config folder into your ./config folder.

Example:

git clone https://github.com/p2ndemic/dotfiles.git
cp -r dotfiles/.config/* ~/.config

TODO

Add installation script
