Hyprland is available in the OM repos. The question I have is, how can we setup all of the other components that Hyprland needs (kitty, wofi, etc.)? I don’t even know what all are needed.
Could someone with experience in this just tell me how I can set it up? Is it possible to use KDE’s notification application instead of mako? I would prefer it, if my Hyprland setup doesn’t mess up Plasma.
Also does Hyprland respect KDE’s power profiles?
A look at the Hyprland wiki would prolly be a good place to start. Especially the master tutorial section.
When it comes to other things.
I think Hyprland by default expects kitty to be installed.
You dont have to use wofi. Rofi works just fine on Hyprland. Arguably better than wofi.
Waybar is also needed but no bar is actually required. Most people want one though.
Pretty sure you can use KDE notification. It’s all in how you configure the hyprland.conf.
I dont know how to call it though. I use dunst and mako.
Have a look at Must have – Hyprland Wiki for additional needs.
Edited the topic title because it might have been misleading.
Also moved to Support category.
So you would just point the notification setting in the hyprland.conf to knotification?
Yes.
I think the line would look something like
exec-once = knotifier
or something similar. I dont know how knotifier works so it might need the other kwallet stuff running too.
You also need to take into consideration that I am in no way a coder. 90% of the time I am wrong on commands and configs. I’m just a guy that likes to push buttons and run commands.
Anyone who has a snazzy Hyprland config feel free to share here if you wish! I Would see it as very helpful in understanding some of the configuration options, etc.
I think this looks really nice and @glomar_response would most likely share the setup with you. He is not here today though.
