🌷 About
Hey there! 👋
Welcome to windots! This repo contains dotfiles for my Windows environment, designed for users who want a riced, Unix-like experience on Windows.
I created this to transform my Windows environment into something cleaner and more Unix-y. Whether it's for a tiling window manager, terminal customization, or smoother workflows, everything here is aimed at making Windows feel less like a chore and more efficient to work with.
If you're into r/unixporn-style setups and want something similar on Windows, this might just help you get started!
[!NOTE] All configurations related to my Linux environment (WSL2) are maintained in a separate repository: dotfiles
