dotfiles repository.
I have archived this repository as it is too unmaintained to be useable for anyone. You can still go to my (newly reorganized)This is a repo where i store my polybar themes.
You can just link each files of the theme to the ~/.config/polybar
directory.
I have the folder in my config directory (this way: ~/config/polybar/themes/<theme-name>
), and use this bash script to switch between them:
#!/bin/bash
ln -f -t ~/.config/polybar ~/.config/polybar/themes/$1/*
~/.config/polybar/launch.sh
You can check my dotfiles and scripts for further reference. (disclaimer: it's messy)
Important to get the themes working
All my themes fetches their colors from xrdb
, so in order to get the themes working, you should set them in the ~/.Xresources
or ~/.Xdefaults
file and then run xrdb ~/.Xresources
(or ~/.Xdefaults
). You can find about the syntax here
Some of them have both i3
and bspwm
modules, some don't, depends on when I wrote them. If you absolutely need a bar working on i3, feel free to issue or pull-request.

a renewed version of the theme below blocks
. Made for tiny bitmap fonts but thicc bars and borders.
Fonts used:
- cherry

modules are the same as below.
blocks
This one is composed of three bars. For that manner, override-redirect
was set to false
. So, in order to have your windows not overlapping on the bars, set your wm's top gaps to some value (I use 85
)
This theme works very well with rounded borders. To enable them, uncomment the radius=20
lines in each bar. To have the shadows follow the shape of the bars, set clear-shadow
to false
in your compton.conf
.

Modules:
wsnumber
: displays the workspace number. It uses a script included in the repo, usesjq
as a dependency (credits to Airblader, on some random forum). Works only on i3. For other wms, you might want to usewmctrl
or something else.xwindow
: displays window namempd
: mpd controller.previous
,playpause
,next
andspotify
: spotify controller usingplayerctl
pulseaudio
: controls volume w/pulseaudio
date

: launches arofi
instance, script to be found on my scripts repo (might not really look well with this theme...)- (optional)
i3
: manages i3 workspaces with some cool round icons, just place it on thei3
bar instead ofwsnumber
. You can see it in the second screenshot

(see dotfiles).
