Hyprland is an amazing desktop that feels amazing. Here is my current setup that is being made.

Please Note: This is beta and not for a beginner. You WILL encounter bugs!

Workarounds that need to be addressed

• Recommend archinstall with Sway as desktop for base
• SDDM-GIT is required or you will run into shutdown bugs and delays
• SDDM needs to be configured for autologin (recommend using swaylock on start of script for security)
• Replace xdg-desktop-portal-wlr with xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland-git

Bugs

• Hyprland is still in beta (0.2) as of the creation of these dot files
• Sometimes my RX5700XT goes to sleep and requires a reload, because it is stuck on black screen.

Work In Progress

• Help Popup with Hotkey
• Wayland guide for nwg-look, wlr-randr, etc.
• Synergy Workaround - Looking at waynergy or just using KVM
• Gamescope Addition - Adding more parity with Steamdeck features
• More Customizations for Waybar - Battery, Backlight, etc.
• Auto-configuration - Long term goal
