### 🪧🪧🪧 ANNOUNCEMENT 🪧🪧🪧 - This Repo does not contain Hyprland Dots or configs! Dotfiles can be checked here [`Hyprland-Dots`](https://github.com/JaKooLit/Hyprland-Dots) . During installation, if you opt to copy pre-configured dots, it will be downloaded from that centralized repo. - Hyprland-Dots use are constantly evolving / improving. you can check CHANGELOGS here [`Hyprland-Dots-Changelogs`](https://github.com/JaKooLit/Hyprland-Dots/wiki/Changelogs) - Since the Hyprland-Dots are evolving, some of the screenshots maybe old - the wallpaper offered to be downloaded towards the end is from this [`REPO`](https://github.com/JaKooLit/Wallpaper-Bank) > [!IMPORTANT] > install a backup tool like `snapper` or `timeshift`. and Backup your system before installing hyprland using this script. This script does NOT include uninstallation of packages > [!NOTE] > Main reason why I have not included an uninstallation script is simple. Some packages maybe already installed on your system by default. If I create an uninstall script with packages that I have set to install, you may end up a unrecoverable system. > [!CAUTION] > Download this script on a directory where you have write permissions. ie. HOME. Or any directory within your home directory. Else script will fail #### 🆕 Prerequisites - This install script is intended for atleast Server type / Minimal Arch Linux installed. > [!NOTE] > 🔘 Pipewire and Pipewire audio - This script will install pipewire and will also disable or will uninstall pulseaudio. If you dont want it, edit install.sh, about line 191 and comment the line `execute_script "pipewire.sh"` or you can simply just delete pipewire.sh in install-scripts directory before installing. #### ✨ Customize the packages to be installed - inside the install-scripts directory, you can edit 00-hypr-pkgs.sh. Care though as the Hyprland Dots may not work properly! #### 💫 SDDM and GTK Themes offered - If you opted to install SDDM theme, here's the [`LINK`](https://github.com/JaKooLit/simple-sddm-2) - If you opted to install GTK Themes, Icons, here's the [`LINK`](https://github.com/JaKooLit/GTK-themes-icons) & Bibata Cursor Modern Ice (assets directory) #### 👀 NVidia GPU Owners. - By default, nvidia-dkms will be installed. and only supports GTX 900 and newer. If required to install older driver, edit the nvidia.sh in install-scripts directory > [!IMPORTANT] > If you want to use nouveau driver, choose N when asked if you have nvidia gpu. This is because the nvidia installer part, it will blacklist nouveau. Hyprland will still be installed but it will skip blacklisting nouveau. - After installation, check [`THIS`](https://github.com/JaKooLit/Hyprland-Dots/wiki/Notes_to_remember#--for-nvidia-gpu-users) ## ✨ to use this script > clone this repo (latest commit only) to reduce file size download by using git. Change directory, make executable and run the script >[!IMPORTANT] > Make sure you have base-devel installed - Without base-devel installed, script will fail ```bash git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/JaKooLit/Arch-Hyprland.git ~/Arch-Hyprland cd ~/Arch-Hyprland chmod +x install.sh ./install.sh ```

#### ✨ for ZSH and OH-MY-ZSH installation > installer should auto change your default shell to zsh. However, if it does not, do this ```bash chsh -s $(which zsh) zsh source ~/.zshrc ``` - reboot or logout - by default agnoster theme is installed. You can find more themes from this [`OH-MY-ZSH-THEMES`](https://github.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/wiki/Themes) - to change the theme, edit ~/.zshrc . Look for ZSH_THEME="desired theme" #### ✨ TO DO once installation done and dotfiles copied - ~~if you opted to install gtk themes, to apply the theme and icon, press the dark/light button (beside the padlock). To apply Bibata modern ice cursor, launch nwg-look (GTK Settings) through rofi.~~ Hyprland-Dots v2.1.18, initial boot file will attempt to apply GTK themes,cursor, and icons. You can tweak more using nwg-look (GTK-Settings) utility - SUPER H for HINT or click on the waybar HINT!

Arco Linux, on some of their ISO's still shipped with pulseaudio as audio backend. You will experience getting "stuck" on installation. - [ ] To install pipewire and its services , `sudo pacman -S pipewire wireplumber pipewire-audio pipewire-pulse` . When prompted, remove / replace pulseaudio. After that, you can ran `./install.sh` - [ ] installing of cava-git on a newly installed Arch makes the install keep hanging. Switched back to cava. After booting and logged in, if cava dont work, replace it cava-git `yay -S cava-git` or `paru -S cava-git` > [!NOTE] > Auto start of Hyprland after login (no SDDM or GDM or any login managers) - [ ] This was disabled a few days ago. (19 May 2024). This was because some users, after they used the Distro-Hyprland scripts with other DE (gnome-wayland or plasma-wayland), if they choose to login into gnome-wayland for example, Hyprland is starting. - [ ] to avoid this, I disabled it. You can re-enable again by editing `~/.zprofile` . Remove all the # on the first lines - [ ] ROFI issues (scaling, unexplained scaling etc). This is most likely to experience if you are installing on a system where rofi is currently installed. To fix it uninstall rofi and install rofi-wayland . `sudo pacman -Rns rofi` . Install rofi-wayland with `sudo pacman -S rofi-wayland`. Rofi-wayland is compatible with x11 so no need to worry. #### 🫥 Improving performance for Older Nvidia Cards using driver 470 - [`SEE HERE`](https://github.com/JaKooLit/Hyprland-Dots/discussions/123#discussion-6035205) #### 📒 Final Notes - join my discord channel [`Discord`](https://discord.com/invite/9JEgZsfhex) - Feel free to copy, re-distribute, and use this script however you want.
