Welcome to Awesome urxvt, a community-driven collection of extensions and learning resources for the popular urxvt terminal window.

The main aim of this repository is to serve as an extension directory. The Arch Wiki page on urxvt already does this somewhat, but only provides links to AUR packages. Here we also includes links to source files for the convenience of non-Arch users. Another benefit of this directory is that - unlike the Arch Wiki - deprecated extensions are excluded to avoid any confusion.

Whilst the primary motivation for this repository is to make extensions easy to find and install for non-Arch users, also included is a list of useful learning resources.

Contributions are very welcome. Please feel free to contribute new extensions or new installation instructions (e.g. installation instructions for other package managers like emerge).
