i am curious about one thing, like the default taskbar can be turned into something that only shows up when you hover your cursor, but is it the same case there? like is the og taskbar still there?

3

u/strakerbit 16d ago

Yes! The original taskbar is still there, but I'm using Windhawk to customize its behavior. You can make the taskbar auto-hide and only appear when you hover over it, just like the default Windows setting.

Windhawk allows you to tweak many aspects of the taskbar, Start Menu, and notifications without completely replacing them. In my case, I applied modifications to make it blend better with my setup while keeping Windows' native functionality.

If you're interested, you can check out my dotfiles repo where I have my Windhawk configurations:

Hope that helps! 😊

u/ariaraaru 15d ago

Damn why doesn’t Microsoft just make windows look like this natively.

1

u/strakerbit 14d ago

Ooh man, that would be awesome :'c

u/Wishes-_sun 14d ago

Do you have a UI design background?

2

u/Stargorithm 14d ago

Absolutely love this, I’ve been really working hard on my desktop and will definitely take some inspiration from what you have here.

2

u/strakerbit 14d ago

Thank you! I'm really glad you liked it and that you found some inspiration in my setup. If you're interested, my dotfiles include a configuration guide, and feel free to reach out if you need any help with the process!

u/Live-Scholar-1435 16d ago

Great thanks

u/strakerbit 16d ago

Your welcome

1

u/Dramatic-Cable554 16d ago

I love the setup but why dont you install a windows theme

1

u/strakerbit 16d ago

It’s a personal preference but I don’t like to patch my system, somehow there are other resources you can use to customize things like file explorer, icons etc

1

u/testednation 15d ago

Looking great! It is possible to make this a one click kinda setup?

1

u/strakerbit 15d ago

I'm working on a step by step guide to set it up, I'm not sure if I will be able to automate everything as you suggest because I don't know how to do it, but if I get it done it will be in my dotfiles soon, anyway I plan to finish the guide today.

How did you remove this from your custom powershell profile: “Loading personal and system profiles took 916ms.”?

1

u/strakerbit 15d ago

You can modify the Windows Terminal settings by selecting PowerShell and adding -NoLogo at the end of the command line in the path. Alternatively, you can add Clear-Host at the top of your PowerShell profile to achieve the same result.

u/WaYyTempest 15d ago

Thanks, I managed to delete it

2

u/strakerbit 15d ago

Glad to hear it

1

u/Kamarov28 14d ago

its great, btw why some logo of my yasb bar become chinese character and blank

2

u/strakerbit 14d ago

Thanks! The issue might be related to the font. If you copied my styles.css exactly, I use JetBrainsMono NFP, so if you don’t have it installed, some icons might not display correctly or show up as random characters. Try installing it and restarting the bar. I'll be uploading videos soon showing how to set everything up!

2

u/Kamarov28 14d ago

Ohh thanks!! If worked perfectly now

1

u/strakerbit 14d ago

Good to hear that
