+## Why do i use Gentoo?
+I use **Gentoo Linux** as my main distribution at the moment because its the one distro that doesn't cause me any problems + its pretty stable and i do like the fact that i have to compile everything and the performance boost that comes along with compiling everything for your specific hardware is pretty noticible!
+
+## Why do i use qtile instead of Dwm, AwesomeWM, XMonad, etc..
+I find qtile being a very fast window manager even tho its written in python which in theory should make it slow but it doesn't! + Qtile is a very customizable window manager by default and you also have more stuff to choose from **Qtile Extras**
+
+## Why nord theme?
+I choose nord theme because of the desaturated colors that are more easier on the eyes while working long hours.
+
+## What do i use this setup for:
+- School Work
+- Watching Movies
+- Learning
+
+## Software i use on daily bases:
+- Neovim (For Code Editing And Writing PDF's Using LaTeX)
+- Alacritty (Terminal)
+- Dmenu (App & Script Launcher)
+- Firefox (Web Browser)
+- Discord (Chatting)
+- Spotify (Music)
+- Ranger (Terminal File Browser)
+- Thunar (GUI File Browser)
+
+## Dependecies:
+- python
+- python-psutil
+- qtile
+- xorg
+- libX11
+- libXft
+- libXinerama
+
+## Install steps:
+1) Install qtile with your distro package manager.
+
+2) Git clone the repo from my github.
+
+```
+git clone https://github.com/zakky20/qtiledots
+```
+
+3) Cd into the cloned repo
+
+```
+sudo mv qtile ~/.config
+```
+
+4) Now you are pretty much done! Just do a Shift+R to reload the qtile config and you are done. Enjoy!
