My personal KDE Plasma dotfiles. In case my arch installs get corrupted or something. I use these configs on Arch Linux but you can get the KWin extensions and cursor theme anywhere.
NOTE: This exists mostly so I can easily restore my configs on a fresh Arch Linux installation. I won't provide support if you try to use these dotfiles on your own system. Some things might not apply and stuff may break. Use at your own risk.
UPDATE 2/24/2026: Plasma 6.6 has released with a new login manager, Plasma Login Manager. I've switched to it and it's working great so far aside from my color scheme not applying (even though the theme files are installed globally). I've removed the SDDM configs and added Plasma Login configs so keep that in mind.
The color schemes are based off of these: Nord Light and Nord Dark. I just edited them to have bolder accent colors and different colors for inactive window title bars.
The Konsole theme is the official Nord Konsole color theme.
i am planning to automate installation via a script but until I figure that out here's manual installation instructions:
-
Download or git clone this repo anywhere. Download link: here
-
Install dependencies (desktop effects/cursor theme/font/etc) (A functional KDE Plasma installation is assumed):
yay -S --needed bibata-cursor-theme blesh-git btop fastfetch klassy-bin kwin-effects-geometry-change starship ttf-hack-nerd
-
Copy everything inside the
homefolder to your home folder (~). If asked, merge/overwrite existing folders/files. NOTE: This folder might appear to be empty, that's because all the files in it are hidden. Press Ctrl+H in your file manager to show hidden files or on the command line,ls -awill show hidden files. -
As root, copy everything inside the
rootfolder to the system root (/). If asked, merge/overwrite existing folders/files. -
Log out and log back in to fully apply the settings.
That's it!
