Raspberry Pi OS • Guide: Keyboard-centric configuration of RPiOS/WayfireWM

$

Raspberry Pi OS is now underpinned by Wayland and WayfireWM. The result is a smooth DE, extremely light on system resources, typically requiring <2Gb ram. Further configuration can add a lot of functionality to your average [power] user.

The [Wayfire Wiki](https://github.com/WayfireWM/wayfire/wiki) links an example `wayfire.ini` to customize shortcuts. You do this by adding to ~/.config/wayfire.ini, thereby overriding sections of `/etc/wayfire/defaults.ini` and `/etc/wayfire/template.ini`. For example, to add plugins to Raspberry Pi OS, you'd incorporate and extend [core], adding the names of plugins to the existing list. Certain plugins work ootb when listed in your plugins. See [default keybindings](https://github.com/WayfireWM/wayfire/wi ... by-default), others are more configurable.

For convenience, I've put together a repo that provides a customized `~/.config/wayfire.ini` that can be a starting point for your keybinds, and instructions to set up a few other creature comforts, to make navigating the desktop a breeze.
