thought i'd share my minimal sway setup. It is simply designed with a utility focused in mind, I don't plan to implement UI/UX graphics, although i might add a dark theme to it.

distro: arch linux tty emulator: alacritty file manager: alacritty menu: rofi editor: vim wm bar: swaybar background utility: swaybg etc: swayidle, swaylock

the swaybar configuration is simply a shell script to fetch information such as battery, ram, cpu, and workspace data. again, this won't be modified for asthetics.

Probably sub to sway's ipc and feed that to the bar every half second or smth. This would benefit from one of those fifo/pipes thingies used in other sh bars to ensure that you don't run every command in your bar every half second
