You can find the project repo in my Github

arch-hud is a personal build of suckless tools for daily use on arch

the tools were implemented thinking of building a heads up display
aiming to make the computer a tool again instead of a cognitive black hole
several DWM patches were implemented along with a retro-style aesthetic
no gaps, no transparency, no compositor by default; no unnecessary distractions

to compile, enter each dir and run sudo make clean install or use build.sh

dwm - tiling windows manager
dmenu - dynamic script menu
st - simple terminal emulator
surf - very minimal browser
tabbed - window tabbing for st and surf
dunst - notification daemon

you can add the picom compositor if you experience screen tearing or glitches
