chadwm (Initial look)

(empty workspaces have their color greyed out)

  • NOTE: This is vanilla dwm bar (status2d patch for setting colors) not dwmblocks or polybar.
  • The small widget over the top right is an eww widget and thats old! Ive improved the eww widget (catppuccin theme) (gruvbox material dark)

Tag preview (while hovering tag icon)
