hyprpm installation

[LaptopDev]

I don't know how to use hyprpm or hyprload. I have only loaded split-monitor-workspaces with hyprctl in my .config before.

How do I use the now native plugin manager of hyprland, hyprpm, to load hyprland-virtual-dekstops plugin?

Hey, you can find instructions at this link https://wiki.hyprland.org/Plugins/Using-Plugins/#installing--using-plugins

[LaptopDev]

(from docs:) Find a repository you want to install plugins from. As an example, we will use hyprland-plugins.

hyprpm add https://github.com/hyprwm/hyprland-plugins

once it finishes, you can list your installed plugins with

hyprpm list

---

Ah, I thought the documentation meant the plugins should come from some special repo with multiple hyprland plugins, instead of individual single plugin repos. hyprpm add https://github.com/levnikmyskin/hyprland-virtual-desktops indeed works.

Thank you
