+# System install guide
+
+Install guide with DIY spirit, key is to reproduce my system setup while making sure understanding is there and all.
+
+- Commands are written for user `kk` unless stated otherwise.
+
+## 0. Current TODOs
+
+### System / mounts
+
+- [x] Add server SSH keys and PC SSH keys
+- [ ] Mount the mobile phone
+  - Make sure nobody else can log in when I connect to random Wi-Fi.
+- [ ] Mount `/proton` on startup
+- [x] Mount `/lenovo-laptop`
+- [x] Mount server at `/server-vps`
+
+### Desktop / UX
+
+- [x] Hibernate if not using the PC for 10 minutes
+- [ ] Start Sway in a tmux session for debugging
+- [ ] Kakoune setup
+- [x] Firefox bookmarks
+- [ ] Ideas for Chinese learning integration
+
+### Launcher / search
+
+- [x] Combine apps, scripts, bookmarks, and files
+  - [x] Use `.desktop` file name instead of the `Name` parameter
+- [x] Everything relevant in `wmenu` browser
+  - [x] `plocate + wmenu > xdg-open`
+  - [x] Applications + `bin` folder
+  - [x] Bookmarks
+
+### Ideas looking for problems
+
+- [ ] tmux automation
+
+---
+
+## 1. Bootstrap sudo and git
+
+```sh
+su root
+export PATH="$PATH:/usr/sbin"
+apt install sudo git
+usermod -aG sudo kk
+```
+
+Then exit both root and the user session, and log in again so the `sudo` group change applies.
+
+Verify:
+
+```sh
+groups # should see "sudo"
+sudo whoami # you should see "root"
+```
+
+Expected output from `sudo whoami`:
+
+```text
+root
+```
+
+---
+
+## 2. Install basic utilities
+
+**Automate later.**
+
+```sh
+sudo apt update
+sudo apt install -y \
+  clang \
+  cmake \
+  build-essential \
+  make \
+  tcc \
+  vim \
+  ripgrep \
+  curl \
+  git \
+  man-db \
+  plocate \
+  tmux \
+  fzf \
+  dtrx \
+  gdb
+
+sudo updatedb # plocate update the database so you can query files on PC nicely
+```
+
+- fzf - fuzzy search on command line, good for making command line tools
+- ripgrep - better grep, nicer syntax and faster: rg "query"
+- dtrx - nice archive unpacking wrapper that makes it less confusing, just dtrx thing.zip or whatever other tar and it should work nicely
+
+Mostly development tools are downloaded here, stuff like tmux, vim and the compiler toolchain needed for development, compiling etc.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Speed up GRUB boot
+
+**Automate later.** Edit `/etc/default/grub`:
+
+```sh
+sudo vi /etc/default/grub
+```
+
+Set:
+
+```ini
+GRUB_TIMEOUT=0
+GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=hidden
+```
+
+Apply changes:
+
+```sh
+sudo update-grub
+```
+
+---
+
+## 4. Enable Debian non-free repositories
+
+**Automate later.** Needed for NVIDIA and firmware packages.
+
+Edit `/etc/apt/sources.list` and add:
+
+```text
+contrib non-free non-free-firmware
+```
+
+Then update apt:
+
+```sh
+sudo apt update
+```
+
+---
+
+## 5. Install drivers and firmware
+
+**Machine-specific / automate carefully.**
+
+```sh
+sudo apt install -y \
+  nvidia-driver \
+  firmware-misc-nonfree \
+  linux-headers-amd64
+```
+
+TODO:
+
+- Set NVIDIA modeset to `1`.
+- Update initramfs.
+- Reboot.
+
+---
+
+## 7. Desktop environment: Sway
+
+**Automate later.**
+
+```sh
+sudo apt install -y \
+  sway \
+  swayidle \
+  swaybg \
+  swaylock \
+  foot \
+  wmenu \
+  brightnessctl \
+  xwayland \
+  wl-clipboard \
+  xdg-desktop-portal-wlr \
+  xdg-desktop-portal-gtk \
+  xdg-user-dirs \
+  fonts-jetbrains-mono \
+  fonts-noto-cjk \
+  fonts-noto-cjk-extra \
+  pipewire \
+  pipewire-pulse \
+  pipewire-alsa \
+  wireplumber \
+  pavucontrol \
+  grim \
+  ffmpeg libavcodec-extra
+```
+
+Package notes:
+
+- sway, terminal, menu, addons:
+    - `sway` - the Wayland window manager / desktop environment of choice. This is the main thing that replaces a traditional desktop like GNOME or KDE.
+    - `swayidle` - idle manager for Sway. Used for things like locking the screen, turning off the display, suspending, or hibernating after a timeout.
+    - `swaybg` - simple wallpaper/background setter for Sway.
+    - `swaylock` - screen locker for Sway/Wayland. Used when locking the session manually or from `swayidle`.
+    - `foot` - terminal emulator for Wayland. This is the main terminal.
+    - `wmenu` - small menu/launcher for Wayland. Useful for app launching and custom scripts like bookmarks/search/file opening.
+    - `grim` - screenshot tool for Wayland. Usually used together with selection/clipboard scripts later.
+    - `brightnessctl` - command line tool for changing screen brightness, usually bound to laptop brightness keys.
+    - `xwayland` - compatibility layer that allows older X11 applications to run inside the Wayland/Sway session.
+    - `wl-clipboard` - Wayland clipboard tools, mainly `wl-copy` and `wl-paste`. Needed by scripts and editor integrations.
+    - `fonts-jetbrains-mono` - nice monospace font for terminal/editor use.
+- xdg, a standard required by some apps (shared enviroment variables and such):
+    - `xdg-desktop-portal-wlr` - desktop portal backend for wlroots compositors like Sway. Needed for screen sharing, screenshots, file pickers, and other app integrations.
+    - `xdg-desktop-portal-gtk` - GTK portal backend/fallback. Helps with file picker dialogs and desktop integration for some applications.
+    - `xdg-user-dirs` - creates standard user folders like `~/Downloads`, `~/Documents`, `~/Pictures`, etc.
+- fix unicode characters (like Chinese) not showing up properly in firefox:
+    - `fonts-noto-cjk` - fonts needed for displaying Chinese, Japanese, Korean, etc. characters in Firefox, Chromium, terminal apps, and other programs.
+    - `fonts-noto-cjk-extra` - additional CJK font coverage/styles.
+- audio:
+    - `pipewire` - the main modern Linux audio/media server. Handles audio routing and is also useful for screen sharing/media integration on Wayland.
+    - `pipewire-pulse` - PulseAudio compatibility layer for PipeWire. Makes applications that expect PulseAudio work through PipeWire instead.
+    - `pipewire-alsa` - ALSA compatibility layer for PipeWire. Helps applications that use ALSA directly play/record audio through PipeWire.
+    - `wireplumber` - PipeWire session/policy manager. It decides how audio devices and streams should be connected automatically.
+    - `pavucontrol` - graphical volume mixer. Useful for choosing input/output devices, changing app volumes, and debugging audio problems.
+- codecs (to fix videos not playing in browser):
+    - ffmpeg libavcodec-extra
+
+### Fix Sway permission issues
+
+If Sway reports render/video permission errors, add the user to the relevant groups:
+
+```sh
+sudo usermod -aG video,render kk
+```
+
+Log out and back in afterwards.
+
+---
+
+## 9. SSH keys
+
+**Manual.** Generate a key if the machine does not already have one:
+
+```sh
+ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -f ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 -N ""
+```
+
+Now exchange the keys with relevant machines so as to make communication easier. This prepares the ground for mounting these machines as easy to access drives.
+
+---
+
+## 10. SSHFS drives
+
+**Partly manual.** Install SSHFS:
+
+```sh
+sudo apt install -y sshfs
+```
+
+Create mount points as needed:
+
+```sh
+sudo mkdir -p /server-vps /lenovo-laptop /proton
+```
+
+Example `/etc/fstab` entry for the VPS:
+
+```fstab
+root@157.90.144.237:/ /server-vps fuse.sshfs noauto,x-systemd.automount,_netdev,x-systemd.idle-timeout=2min,x-systemd.mount-timeout=10s,reconnect,ServerAliveInterval=15,ServerAliveCountMax=3,IdentityFile=/home/kk/.ssh/id_ed25519,UserKnownHostsFile=/home/kk/.ssh/known_hosts,StrictHostKeyChecking=accept-new,allow_other,default_permissions 0 0
+```
+
+Test after editing `/etc/fstab`:
+
+```sh
+sudo systemctl daemon-reload
+ls /server-vps
+```
+
+---
+
+## 11. Browser / internet tools
+
+**Automate later.**
+
+```sh
+sudo apt install -y chromium
+```
+
+Optional text/web search tools:
+
+```sh
+sudo apt install -y w3m surfraw
+```
+
+---
+
+## 12. Extras
+
+### Clipboard history
+
+```sh
+sudo apt install -y cliphist
+```
+
+---
+
+## 13. Voice typing: Voxtype
+
+**Manual / automate carefully.**
+
+Install Voxtype:
+
+```sh
+curl -LO https://github.com/peteonrails/voxtype/releases/download/v0.6.0/voxtype_0.6.0-1_amd64.deb
+sudo dpkg -i voxtype_0.6.0-1_amd64.deb
+rm voxtype_0.6.0-1_amd64.deb
+```
+
+Install runtime dependencies:
+
+```sh
+sudo apt install -y \
+  wtype \
+  wl-clipboard \
+  libnotify-bin \
+  playerctl
+```
+
+Allow input access:
+
+```sh
+sudo usermod -aG input "$USER"
+```
+
+Log out and back in afterwards.
+
+### Optional GPU support
+
+```sh
+read -r -p "Enable GPU support? [y/N] " answer
+case "$answer" in
+  [yY]|[yY][eE][sS])
+    sudo voxtype setup gpu --enable
+    ;;
+esac
+```
+
+### Voxtype setup
+
+```sh
+voxtype setup
+voxtype setup systemd
+voxtype setup model
+```
+
