Install espanso (compiled due to annoying notifications and no systemd):

cd $CLONE_DIR
git clone https://github.com/espanso/espanso

Install wxwidgets

doas pacman -S wxwidgets

cd espanso

To turn off notifications, simply cp from this directory the notifications.rs file to the ~/$CLONE_DIR/espanso/espanso/src/cli/worker/ui/ directory before compiling.

cp notification.rs ~/$CLONE_DIR/espanso/espanso/src/cli/worker/ui/notification.rs

cargo install --force cargo-make --version 0.34.0
cargo make --profile release build-binary
doas mv target/release/espanso /usr/bin/espanso

Copy xinitrc.txt which calls espanso at beginning

cp ../xinitrc.txt ~/.xinitrc

Copy your base.yml to your espanso/match config directory

cp base.yml ~/.config/espanso/match/
