Personal Hyprland supplement and post-install bootstrap for Arch Linux,

This repo is not a full distro, and not a framework. It exists so I can reinstall Arch + Hyprland and get my daily-driver setup back with one command.

If it helps you, feel free to steal it. If it breaks on your machine, you fix it.

---

Notes

• This repo is my personal backup
• No guarantees
• No support
• Of course you can use this with other distro with Hyprland. But you'll need to edit the setup.sh by yourself, or simply just copy-paste (or stow) the dotfiles 🤣
• $mainMod usually using windows key, but please read the note inside keybindings.conf or simply edit the input.conf
• If something breaks, you fix it yourself.

What this repo is

• A post-install helper for Hyprland configs
• Installs my base packages (pacman + AUR)
• Stows my dotfiles safely
• Restores my preferred defaults for Hyprland usage

This repo assumes:

• Arch Linux already installed (or other your beloved distro based on arch)
• Hyprland already installed (if you choose other Desktop environment, you still able to steal some dotfiles from here)

Nothing more, nothing less.

Default apps used in keybinds

My Hyprland config uses the following defaults:

Purpose	App
Terminal	ghostty
Editor	nvim
File manager	yazi
Browser	Zen Browser

These apps are referenced directly in Hyprland keybinds.

You can change them anytime by editing the Hyprland config after stowing.

Mandatory dependency

• Depend on what you need from this repo

This repo does not install Hyprland basic setup for you. Install it first by yourself 🙃

Thanks to :

1. Omarchy My first linux that provide so many inspiration for me to make this repo
2. Typecraft Dev Because the setup.sh is copy-paste with some adjustment from Crucible
