Feature Request

Description

When the sddm login page, click on the login and verify that the information is correct, there is an over-animated jump to the Hyprland page, and the user experience will increase dramatically

If you're talking about how everything has to load (so swww, waybar, and some other things) when going into hyprland, we can't really fix that. When logging into hyprland, it goes through all the things in hyprland.conf and might take a second or two to do so.

What I want to say is that when our SDDM page is successfully verified, there will be a loading animation, when the hyprland configuration traversal is completed, and the other components have been initialized, then enter hyprland instead of waiting for a black screen

Oh i see, so similar to KDE Plasma where it has a loading animation before putting you into the desktop? I have no idea if something like that exists, but i'd be interested in implementing something if there was a good solution.

The loading animation after the KDE Plasma landing, provided by an application called "KSplash". KSplash is responsible for displaying an animation or image when KDE Plasma starts, to mask any delay during startup.

plymouth-themes This project is an animation from boot to login manager, and I feel like it can be integrated into our project

However, there is still no concrete implementation of excessive animation between SDDM and Hyprland

Wow! That would be cool. This very feature you're talking about is the boot splash screen, right (Will mask boot messages and warnings) ? Can't see any implementation for this on Window Managers yet, but if everyone will love this, why not. I hope this will be arbitrary though as I can't see my self using this feature as after I log in everything loads. And having this loading screen feels slow. Would still love to help. 😁

@kRHYME7 well that maybe true so if this is implemented . Option to yes or no on install script. But either way it will be slow so why not animation? I love this idea
