    General guidance from repository metadata, not legal advice. How we score

    From the README

    This is the main repo of the caelestia dots and contains the user configs for apps. This repo also includes an install script to install the entire dots.

    Simply clone this repo and run the install script (you need fish installed).

    The install script has some options for installing configs for some apps.

    Install all dependencies and follow the installation guides of the shell and cli to install them.

    Then copy or symlink the hypr, foot, fish, fastfetch, uwsm and btop folders to the $XDG_CONFIG_HOME (usually ~/.config) directory. e.g. hypr -> ~/.config/hypr. Copy starship.toml to $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/starship.toml.
