First install Hoembrew, a package manager for macOS.
/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
With this package manager installed, further software installation is pretty easy. For Neofetch just use:
brew install neofetch
“Pywal is a tool that generates a color palette from the dominant colors in an image. It then applies the colors system-wide and on-the-fly in all of your favourite programs.”
For the installation look at Github. In my case I had to run the following command:
sudo apt purge python3-pip && sudo apt install --install-recommends python3-pip && pip3 install pywal
To get an overview of your PyWal installation run:
pip3 show pywal
Test it with:
wal -v
If it returns “zsh: command not found: pywal” you have to add the PIP install directory to your path
export PATH="${PATH}:${HOME}/.local/bin/"
To use PyWal, just run it with wal -i and the path to an image.
wal -i /path/to/image.jpg

Clone Polybar repo:
git clone https://github.com/jaagr/polybar.git
Build Polybar:

Since the Dark Theme in Firefox 68.0.2 still has a flashing white page when opening a new tab, it’s no useable dark theme in my opinion.
That’s why I prefer ShadowFox (Github) instead of the native dark theme. Easy to install and many ways to do further customizing.
Firefox Add-ons I use:
Also I like bookmarks in the toolbar centralized. Just append the following lines to the userChrome.css.
The file is placed in your Firefox Profile: ~/.mozilla/firefox/profile_name/chrome/userChrome.css
#PersonalToolbar {
display: flex !important;
justify-content: center !important;
}
