Hi sorry if its a dumb question but I have no wallpaper and I dont get how to set up properly the wallpaper

Both sway and hyprland uses swaybg as wallpaper handler in my config.

You can manually set a wallpaper with 

swaybg --output '*' --mode fill --image /path/to/your/wallpaper &

In the ~/.config/hypr/scripts/startup script and in the ~/.config/sway/config file.

If you use my config, there should be a script to switch between wallpapers you want without editing yourself the configs by using Meta+LeftShift+B. You just need to put the wallpapers you want inside the ~/.config/sway/backgrounds directory. If you want to change the wallpapers directory, go inside ~/.config/hypr/scripts/background and ~/.config/sway/scripts/background-swap.sh and replace the 

BACKGROUND_DIR="$HOME/.config/sway/backgrounds"

line with 

BACKGROUND_DIR="path/to/your/wallpapers/directory"
