👁️‍🗨️ My Hyprland install Scripts 👁️‍🗨️

• You can install Hyprland using Scripts below:

• Fedora-Linux

• Debian/Ubuntu-Linux

• Arch-Linux

• refer to install scripts what packages needed to install... but atleast, Hyprland packages is needed 😏😏😏 duh!!

👀 Screenshots 👀

• All screenshots are collected here Screenshots

❗❗ V2! What's new?

• Switched to rofi as app launcher, added pywal colors and switched Kitty for tty.
• I have also added a small button HINT!, which should help new users.
• Previous users can upgrade! However, you need to install rofi-wayland, kitty and pywal. If you want the HINT button, install yad as well.
• v2 Changes - Youtube

📦 Changelogs

• To easily track changes, I will be updating the changelogs. CHANGELOGS Screenshots will be included if worth it!

✨ Copying instructions.

• Note! The auto copy script will create backups of intended folders to be copied. However, still a good idea to manually backup just incase script failed to backup!

• ~/.config (btop cava dunst gtk-3.0 hypr kitty rofi swappy swaylock waybar wlogout) - These are folders to be copied.

• ~/Pictures/wallpapers - Will be backed up

🔔 Automatic copy of configurations

clone this repo by using git. Change directory, make executable and run the script

git clone https://github.com/JaKooLit/Hyprland-Dots.git
cd Hyprland-Dots
chmod +x copy.sh
./copy.sh

🐌 Manual copy (not recommended for newbies)

• Backup your existing folders in ~/.config (advisable)
• copy all contents of configs into ~/.config, overwriting all
• copy contents of wallpapers into ~/Pictures/wallpapers/ (create wallpapers folder if required)
• make the Hyprland scripts executable

chmod +x $HOME/.config/hypr/scripts/*

• Make sure to execute initial symlinks else dunst, wofi and waybar will fail to launch

ln -sf "$HOME/.config/waybar/configs/config-default" "$HOME/.config/waybar/config"
ln -sf "$HOME/.config/waybar/style/style-pywal.css" "$HOME/.config/waybar/style.css"
ln -sf "$HOME/.config/dunst/styles/dunstrc-dark" "$HOME/.config/dunst/dunstrc"

• after that initialize pywal with wal -i wallpaper/path
• then run this

ln -sf "$HOME/.cache/wal/colors-rofi-dark.rasi" "$HOME/.config/rofi/pywal-color/pywal-theme.rasi"

• Before reboot or logout, choose wallpaper with SUPER CTRL W.

⚠️⚠️⚠️ A MUST! after copying these dots

• By default I have not set a wallpaper. Press SSUPER CTRL W and set a wallpaper. This is also to initiate pywal for waybar, kitty (tty) and rofi themes. If you use the copy.sh script, you wont need to do this.
• Nvidia Owners. Make sure to edit your ~/.config/hypr/configs/ENVariables.conf if you have set a proper environment already. (recommended). WLR_NO_CURSORS will be activated if nvidia gpu is detected.
• If you have already set your own keybinds, monitors, etc.... Just copy over from backup created before log-out or reboot. (recommended)

📖 Known issues and possibly solutions

• Themes are broken when changing dark light - Ensure you have Tokyo Night Dark and Light themes installed and Tokyo Night SE icons or adjust the Dark Light script located in ~/.config/hypr/scripts/DarkLight.sh
• Keyboard shortcuts or customized Keybinds are broken! - Just copy over your previous Keybinds.conf from the hypr-backup in ~/.config/
• Background for rofi is not changing - This actually applies to multimonitor setup! I have designed that background will be pulled from ~/.cache/swww first monitor. To fix, delete the files in ~/.cache/swww and then reselect a new wallpaper either by SUPER W or SUPER CTRL W.

🙋 QUESTIONS ?!?! ⁉️

• FAQ! Yes you can use these dotfiles to other distro! Just ensure to install proper packages first! If it makes you feel better, I use same config on my Gentoo and NixOS :)
• QUICK HINT! Click the HINT! Waybar module (note only available in default layout). Can be launched by Keybind SUPER H
• More question? Maybe answered already in Help File! SUPER SHIFT H to launch it!
• If you still have, kindly join my discord for faster communication. See invite link below. If not, open an issue on github

🙏 Special request

• If you have improvements on the dotfiles or configuration, feel free to submit a PR for improvement. I always welcome improvements as I am also just learning just like you guys!
• Waybar styles (all those new panel styles require some tweaking) - I kindly request assistance 🙏

🤷‍♂️ TO DO!

• Tweak waybar layouts and Themes
• Tweak rofi layouts and Themes
• Quite possibly switch to starship? Although starship has limited themes compared to oh-my-zsh.
