+### `i3_config`
+I use <a href="https://github.com/Airblader/i3">i3-gaps</a> pretty much exclusively. There's not a lot special about my i3 setup, but I've got the borders nicely colored, my tabbed/stacked titlebars are blank, and it's meant to be used with Picom.

+### `picom.conf`
+I use <a href="https://github.com/ibhagwan/picom">ibhagwan's picom fork</a>, since it gives me the fewest artifacts (and has dual-kawase). I use a softer dual-kawase and a *lot* of transparency.

+### `starship.toml`
+I use <a href="https://starship.rs/">Starship</a> for my shell prompt. I don't like emoji, though, so I've configured it to use mostly plain text.
