Search for a developer to create a working environment DWM

Hi all . I'm looking for a user or developer to help create a working environment, I'm ready to pay for the work. (payment in xmr is also possible for those interested)

I want to configure DWM + DWMblocks: + Rofi (a clickable panel as well as some colored icons) and additionally configure the Herbe notification, I have attached an example of how it should work, that is, a minimalistic system.
At the moment I have about 20 scripts that need to be improved.

Something similar to this rise (just an example that I liked)
Write to me here or in session

Are you familiar with Luke Smith's LARBS project? With the help of his script, you can have a fully configured Artix system including the components you want in no time at all. Also take a look at the corresponding  Github repository.

Really - dwm is not that difficult. You don't rally need to know C in order to patch it.
Does it take time? Sure does. But once you achieve the "perfect" dwm setup - you wont stray from it for a long time.

I have been in mine for 3 years and counting. I can't ever see moving from it.

Hi. Thanks for your reply. Yes, I am familiar with his site, I especially like LandChad.https://landchad.net/  great idea, more projects like this!
As for setting up my DWM, it differs in many ways, so I am looking for help. I do not use the programs that Luke uses, although some scripts may be, I need my own build, so I am ready to pay for the work of the user who will undertake it.

Hi. Thanks for your answer. I think exactly the same as you)) Now I have configured it as best I could, and have been using it for a long time, but I would like to bring it to an ideal state and the most important thing is that I know what I want and what I need. This is a fairly simple set of tools, I do not need a desktop with animation))

In my experience, my dwm move between Debian, Arch, and now Artix - was a easy as ensuring I have the pre-reqs installed first (Arch and Artix were the same), copying my suckless directory, running the make routines.

It looks like you are coming from an OpenBSD system so you will need to make sure that your config files comment out the OpenBSD related bits in favor of the more generic ones. The other thing to make sure of when compiling, the bins are then placed where they would belong in a Linux system oppose to a BSD system.
There may be some differences (I don't recall its been a very long time since I ran either Free or Open).

In case you are thinking, what are those pre-reqs? Here's what I use:
base-devel git libx11 libxft xorg-server xorg-xinit terminus-font xorg-xrandr xorg-xsetroot

The real debate is what a person feels is a pre-req. I think the above is a bare-minimum.

In my case, I didn't need to worry about either of these. You should at least give that a try. You might surprise yourself!

Hi. Thanks for your answer. As for the photo with BSD, this is just an example of what kind of setup I would like to have))

I already have experience setting up DMW and Dwmblocks , I need help to fine-tune it, since some programs are not so easy to set up, for example "Herbe", (attached photo) https://github.com/dudik/herbe which I want to use instead of "Dunst" or clickable calendar and other scripts do not work very correctly for me.
