Quickshell

Not based on, but heavily depends on many modules from (an old version of) noctalia-shell. A thousand thanks to their great work.

This setup is currently only adapted for Niri.

Wallpaper & Colortheme

• WallReel: an Image Carousel implemented with QtQuick to browse and set wallpapers from.
• change-colortheme: script that extract colors from the current wallpaper and generate a catppuccin color scheme accordingly.
• backgrounds collection for personal use (mostly waifus).

Grub theme

Based on vinceliuice/Elegant-grub2-themes with an illustration from 紺屋.

Fonts

See fontconfig.md.

Previous setup

How it looks like...

Hyprland & friends

Based on an old version of end-4/dots-hyprland but without ags, quickshell, eww and tons of other stuff.

Eww

• main, main dashboard, modified from syndrizzle/hotfiles but without notification center.
• lyrics, scrolling lyrics player, depends on a small utility from myself (which also happens to be my frist Golang program :D).
• lyrics-single, similar to lyrics, but only with a single line and can be easily embeded into the status bar.

Swww

The wallpaper will be automatically blurred when there is a window in focus, which is implemented in the wallpaper-daemon script.

This feature is only enabled in Niri. Swww also manages wallpapers of the Hyprland setup, yet only in the regular way.

Wallpaper & Colortheme

The most suitable primary color (or so-called flavor) will be chosen from the Catppuccin Mocha palette and applied to various apps automatically after changing wallpaper. And also:

• wallpaper-chooser to select wallpaper, which implements an Image Carousel with Qt Widgets.
• backgrounds collection for personal use.

Rofi

Based on codeopshq/dotfiles, also serves as the clipboard history browser and emoji picker.
