    * I use `Connman` instead of `NetWorkManager` (`don't install if you prefer or use NetWorkManager`):

      ```shell
      $ sudo apt-get install connman connman-gtk connman-ui connman-vpn
      ````
      
  * **`Install i3-gaps and alacritty:`**
  
    * Clone repository and run the scripts for installation:

      ```shell
      $ git clone https://github.com/q3aql/dotfiles
      $ cd dotfiles
      $ chmod +x alacritty-install.sh
      $ chmod +x i3-gaps-install.sh
      $ sudo ./alacritty-install.sh

      ````

### Configuration:

  * **`Network Manager (Connman or NetWorkManager):`**
  
    * By default is enabled `Connman` as network manager:
    * If you prefer NetWorkManager, edit the file `~/.config/i3/config`:
    
      ```shell
      exec --no-startup-id connman-gtk --tray &
      #exec --no-startup-id nm-applet
      ````

  * **`Monitor & resolution:`**
  
    * The configuration load my monitor configuration:
    * Use the command `xrandr` for show your config & edit the file `~/.config/i3/startxrandr.sh`:
    
      ```shell
      sleep 2
      xrandr --output DisplayPort-0 --mode 1280x1024 -r 75.02
      xrandr --output DisplayPort-1 --mode 1280x1024 -r 75.02 --rotate left --right-of DisplayPort-0
      ````

  * **`Wallpaper:`**
  
    * By default, the config load wallpaper on `~/wallpapers/abstract.png`:
    * Edit  `~/.config/i3/config` for set your favorite wallpaper:
    
      ```shell
      exec --no-startup-id "sleep 3 && nitrogen --set-centered ~/wallpapers/abstract.png"
      ````

  * **`Enable Gaps:`**
  
    * My config work on vanilla i3wm and gaps are disabled.
    * You can enable it editing 2 lines on file `~/.config/i3/config` and pressing `Win+Shift+r`:
    
      ```shell
      #gaps inner 6
      #gaps outer 2
      ````

  * **`Battery Indicator:`**
  
    * By default, the battery indicator is disabled on i3blocks top bar.
    * You can enable it editing the lines on `~/.config/i3blocks/config` file:
    
      ```shell
      #[BATTERY]
      #command=~/.config/i3blocks/battery/battery_info.sh
      #interval=3
