Looks pretty good.

Since evilwm only has the built-in keybindings for window control (move, close, resize etc ...) I find it useful to also run a key grabber like xbindkeys or sxhkd ( search Arch wiki for git page) so that I can have keybindings for common applications or dmenu.

or replace term EvilVTE with term gexec in .evilwm rc file to have a run command..
