Short Video Previews

Note : You need to manually set soft links for nwg-dock and nwg-drawer css in the config folder for light/dark themes. And some env variables, preferences are set as per personal needs so modify accordingly.

Installation

This configuration is based on the original repo from which it is forked, but contains some personal configurations and tweaks made by me like :

• 1.7px borders on top panel items (waybar)
• Tweaked waybar modules
• Catppuccin color palette rainbow window borders
• Faster window border animation
• New Wallpapers edited to suit Catppuccin Theme
• Some other color tweaks in rofi app launcher, waybar panel, etc.
• nwg-dock setup for ease
• easy to use keybindings

The installation script is made for Arch, but may work on some Arch based distros with systemd. (Tested on Garuda Linux)

Important

Install script will auto-detect nvidia card and install nvidia-dkms drivers for your kernel. So please ensure that your Nvidia card supports dkms drivers and hyprland.

Caution

The script modifies your grub config to enable Nvidia drm and theme. NOTE : Don't forget to remove VS Code login for sync, as this resets vscode configuration. After installation, login and sync with your remote data again.

After minimal Arch install (with grub and systemd), clone and execute -

pacman -Sy git
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/yashlakhtariya/ysl-hyprdots ~/Hyprdots
cd ~/Hyprdots/Scripts
./install.sh

Tip

You can also create your own list (for ex. custom_apps.lst) with all your favorite apps and pass the file as a parameter to install it -

./install.sh custom_apps.lst

Please reboot after the install script completes and takes you to sddm login screen (or black screen) for the first time. For more details, please refer installation wiki

Themes

Modified by YSL : Catppuccin Latte, Catppuccin Mocha (rest same)

To create your own custom theme, please refer theming wiki

Tip

You can install/browse/create/maintain/share additional themes (ex. Synth-Wave) using themepatcher. For more details please refer themepatcher wiki. For more details please refer themepatcher wiki.
