WELCOME TO HOME SCREEN SUNDAY!
Welcome to Home Screen Sunday, a series every Sunday where we look at home screens from me or even others and explain how it works. It can be Android, iOS, or even Desktop!
LET’S DO IT!
For today’s entry, we have a simple setup by me based on Manjaro Cup of Linux Edition (or mCOLe) with a few tweaks!
REQUIREMENTS
For most of the stuff, you need mCOLe to have it pre-setup that way. It is possible on other Linux Distros but will be harder to set up.
Also, you will need:
This allows you to expand text shortcuts, optional.
Set it up like [this post]({% post_url 2015-01-17-firefox-tree-tabs %})!
Text Editor by GitHub, optional.
SETUP
- Right click on Panel/Taskbar and click
Panel > Panel Preferences
. Then go toAppearance
and chooseNone (Use System Style)
- Remove most of the Launchers/Pinned Items on the left side except Terminal,
Home, Mousepad, and Firefox.
OPTIONAL
Right click on Mousepad and change it to Atom. - Go to where you downloaded the wallpaper, right click on it, and choose
Set as wallpaper
from the context menu. - Click the
Start Menu
, then theAll Settings
icon in the corner. UnderWindow Manager > Style > Theme
, chooseBorderless
! OPTIONAL
Download AutoKey and setup text snippets to make writing faster. For example, I can write lp for Lollipop and if I change the Capitalization, it will capitalize it for me!
CUSTOMIZE
Now that you got the basic layout, feel free to customize it!
ENJOY
I hope that you enjoyed this installment of Home Screen Sunday (HSS)!
