Just configured my working laptop. Spent a lot of hours to "learn" how various tools (polybar, kitty, nvim) works and how to configure them.

Nvim written from scratch, I tried to comment out the various files written in lua.

Based on colorscheme "nordic" from alexvzyl.

Any recommendations for video tutorials on how to do this

There are bunch of them. I preferred to start configuring those components by reading and trying to understanding how does the various configurations work. Then I took a look at the ricings I liked and started from them. For every piece of ricing, there is a default configuration where you can start to edit.

Neovim was the hardest to understand (and I'm sure I did something wrong or useless), and also for it there are a lot of useful resources on the web, I can't really raccomend one or another, but again, I avoided every video tutorial just because I prefer to read.

Start with one component and start ricing!
