# dwmblocks-async - mike's build
|
|
|
|
This is a build/configuration of [dwmblocks-async](https://github.com/UtkarshVerma/dwmblocks-async). Vanilla [dwmblocks](https://github.com/torrinfail/dwmblocks) runs blocks sequentially, which means if one block freezes or simply takes a long time to load (for example, a weather block trying to pull from the internet when you don't have connection), all subsequent blocks have to wait on it.
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
git clone https://git.mjwilson.org/mike/dwmblocks-async.git
|
|
cd dwmblocks-async
|
|
sudo make clean install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
Add dwmblocks (the binary is still called dwmblocks, **not** dwmblocks-async) to your ~/.xinitrc to run in the background at login/startup:
|
|
```sh ~/.xinitrc
|
|
dwmblocks &
|
|
exec dwm
|
|
```
