Waybar: Missing required resources files

[lovesegfault]

Since I didn't want to install waybar proper, I just symlinked the binary to a folder in my $HOME and in my $PATH. However, when I try to run waybar I get:

$ ~/bin/waybar
Missing required resources files

Why is this happening, and what is the right way to do this?

You are missing the configuration and style files.
If you want you can specify them with -c and -s args

got hit also...
I suggest "config" wiki page be updated with a note like:
ensure you also have *styles.css* file for waybar to run properly (for instance in .*/config/waybar*).
