Turn a fresh Wayblue Sway installation into my version of a fully-configured development system by running a single command. omakase-blue is an opinionated take on an already opinionated Linux workstation. Inspired by Omakub.

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://luke.hsiao.dev/omakase-blue.sh | sh

These scripts install a set of useful GUI applications as Flatpaks, as well as a single distrobox dev container with all my favorite core tools. This dev-toolbox is the default terminal experience, and shared access to $HOME, so it feels like you are working directly on the host.

The easiest way to install wayblue sway right now is likely to install Project Bluefin the normal way. Then, follow the Wayblue Sway instructions to rebase your install on wayblue.

rpm-ostree rebase ostree-unverified-registry:ghcr.io/wayblueorg/$IMAGE_NAME:latest
systemctl reboot
rpm-ostree rebase ostree-image-signed:docker://ghcr.io/wayblueorg/$IMAGE_NAME:latest
systemctl reboot

Then, currently due to the known issues, you need to first install two things:

ujust install-brew
rpm-ostree install fish
systemctl reboot

Then, you can run the script.

If you want to use tailscale for ssh/mosh, you probable need to

sudo systemctl enable --now sshd
sudo firewall-cmd --add-interface=tailscale0 --zone=trusted --permanent

on the host.

• homebrew is missing from the base image
• fish requires a reboot in the middle of the install
• yubikey gpg-agent as an ssh-agent seems unreliable (frequently asking to reinsert the key)
• you cannot run omakaseblue from within the toolbox (since we do not set up bash)
• uninstall and update paths are not well tested (e.g., we know uninstall does NOT uninstall everything we installed)
• everything should be idempotent, and it is not right now (e.g., redis/postgres/mysql will fail if there is already a container)
