Install

Start with a postmarketOS for PinePhone image with postmarketos-ui-sway installed. Either use the pre-built demo image or build a custom one with pmbootstrap.

Flash the system onto the phone (either to an SD card or directly to the eMMC with Jumpdrive).

Open a terminal on the phone (either through SSH, the serial connection or directly on the screen) and run this:

# components
$ sudo apk add waybar bemenu networkmanager

# build tools
$ sudo apk add git make waybar bemenu networkmanager

# installation
$ git clone https://github.com/Dejvino/pinephone-sway-poc
$ cd pinephone-sway-poc
$ make install_user
$ sudo make install_system

That's it. You should now have everything in place. Reboot to use the new settings.
