Applications

🎨 BetterDiscord

Overview

✔️ BetterDiscord is a client mod with endless flexibility and addons. The only limit to the customization is your own imagination.
🧩 Extending the platform is as easy as clicking install on a plugin or theme.
🎨 BetterDiscord will help you have a beautiful and more useful user experience on Discord.

Installation

Install BetterDiscord.
Restart Discord.

Configuration

On Settings > BetterDiscord > Enable Custom CSS and Enable Transparency.
Paste the .config/BetterDiscord into ~/.config/BetterDiscord
discord-pywalsync.sh is used to overwrite the css color with pywal generated color palette. The script calls as a hook when running wallpaper-picker.sh so it automatically matches the color whenever you change your wallpaper.

📊 btop

🎶 Cava

Overview

Cross-platform Audio Visualizer. Cava is a bar spectrum audio visualizer for terminal or desktop (SDL).

Installation

Install cava

Configuration

Paste the .config/cava into ~/.config/cava
cava-pywalsync.sh is used to match the cava color with pywal generated color palette. The script calls as a hook when running wallpaper-picker.sh so it automatically matches the color whenever you change your wallpaper.

⚡ Fastfetch

Overview

Fastfetch is a neofetch-like tool for fetching system information and displaying it in a visually appealing way. It is written mainly in C, with a focus on performance and customizability. Currently, it supports Linux, macOS, Windows 7+, Android, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, DragonFly, Haiku, and SunOS.

Installation

Install fastfetch

Configuration

Paste the .config/fastfetch into ~/.config/fastfetch
wallpaper-picker.sh changes the logo and the wife name, based on the wallpaper name. i.e. if the file name is Arknight_Theresa, then the logo will set into john_arknight and the wife name into Theresa.
fastfetch_auto.sh is a script that detects the change of fastfetch config and reloads it, so you don’t have to call fastfetch multiple times.

🌈 Pywal

Overview

Pywal is a tool that generates a color palette from the dominant colors in an image. It then applies the colors system-wide and on-the-fly in all of your favourite programs.

Installation

Install pywal

Configuration

Paste the .config/wal into ~/.config/wal
wallpaper-picker.sh calls pywal to generate color palette based on the wallpaper name (if the theme exists) or the dominant color of your wallpaper. i.e. I have .config/wal/themes/Arknights.json so if I set my wallpaper to Arknights_Amiya it applies the predefined theme rather than the dominant color of the wallpaper. It also calls .config/wal/hooks/hooks.sh.
hooks.sh syncs the theme across all of the applications that are being used.

🖥️ WezTerm

Overview

WezTerm is a powerful cross-platform terminal emulator and multiplexer written by @wez and implemented in Rust.

Installation

Install wofi

Paste the .config/wofi into ~/.config/wofi
wallpaper-picker.sh calls wofi to show the thumbnail of available wallpapers — don’t forget to set the right path to your wallpaper directory.

✨ Other cool applications

🎵 kew: Listen to music in the terminal.
💻 CMatrix: A terminal screensaver that simulates the “Matrix rain” effect, just like in the movie.

Script

Warning

To fully utilize the scripts, you need to install a few dependencies:
jq
ImageMagick
wofi
pywal

🖼 wallpaper-picker.sh

What it does

Provides a wallpaper picker using Wofi with image thumbnails.
Automatically applies Pywal colors, updates GNOME wallpaper, changes Fastfetch logo, and runs hooks.
Integrates with Pywalfox to update Firefox theme.

Notes on Color Backends

Pywal supports different color extraction backends that slightly change the generated palette.
You can switch backends by adding the --backend argument after "$WAL_BIN" -i "$SELECTED" in wallpaper-picker.sh.

wal (default) → balanced palette, optimized for terminals.
colorz → stronger contrast, fewer dominant colors. (Looks great on Chiori wallpapers).
haishoku → softer palettes with lower contrast.

This setup is optimized for the default wal backend.
However, you can further customize the derived color variables if you’re not satisfied with the results:

🎶 For Cava, change the gradient source in cava-pywalsync.sh, e.g.

COLOR1=$(jq -r '.colors.color8' "$WAL_COLORS")

COLOR1=$(jq -r '.colors.color5' "$WAL_COLORS")

💬 For Discord, edit the variables inside ~/.config/BetterDiscord/bd-template.css, replacing var(--color) with another Pywal color of your choice.

Installing extra backends

pip install colorz
pip install haishoku

What it does

 mkdir -p "$BACKUP"

 for dir in "$DOTFILES"/*; do
     name=$(basename "$dir")

     # if ~/.config/dir exists, move it to backup
     if [ -e "$CONFIG/$name" ]; then
         echo "Backing up $CONFIG/$name → $BACKUP/$name"
         mv "$CONFIG/$name" "$BACKUP/"
     fi

     # create symlink
     echo "Linking $dir → $CONFIG/$name"
     ln -s "$dir" "$CONFIG/$name"
 done

 echo "✅ All configs linked. Backup saved in $BACKUP"
