### How to install
After installing the dependencies, place the stuff like you see it in your home directory. Change the settings of your Plasma desktop, of your shell or terminal emulator, make Polybar launch at startup and you should be good to go. If you want pfetch to run when you open a terminal, append the line `pfetch` at the bottom of your `.zshrc` file (I didn't include mine because it has some Oh My Zsh bloat).

To activate the powerlevel10k theme make sure you have this line `source ~/.p10k.zsh` in your `.zshrc` file.
### Explaining some things
#### Polybar
`.config/polybar` contains stuff from [adi1090x's Polybar Themes repo](https://github.com/adi1090x/polybar-themes) with the addition of a custom folder called `gmg` which is a modified version of the `material` theme present in the same base directory. To launch Polybar with my theme, just run the `launch.sh` script with the flag `--gmg`. You might want to make a thing at login that automatically runs the command for you. Also a lot of the stuff in this custom theme has italian text so, unless you like pasta a lot, you might wanna change that. For this the fonts [Roboto](https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Roboto), [Fantasque Sans Mono](https://github.com/belluzj/fantasque-sans) and [Material Design Iconic Font](https://zavoloklom.github.io/material-design-iconic-font/) are required for the theme to work properly, but you can always set your own in the **config file**.

For the date module to work correctly in your system language, assuming it isn't italian, you have to change the line `locale = it_IT.UTF-8` in the `config.ini` file.
I've got a few very simple stupid Polybar modules that I've made myself for my workflow. You can see what each of them do at `gmg/user_modules.ini`.
