Arch-Hyprland is an automated installation script that sets up the Hyprland wayland compositor on Arch Linux and Arch-based distributions.
The script automates the process of installing and configuring Hyprland along with its ecosystem of companion tools. It handles the deployment of a complete desktop environment by installing Hyprland itself alongside utilities like Rofi for application launching, Waybar for the status bar, Swww for wallpaper management, and Wallust for color scheme generation. The installation process is driven by shell scripts that orchestrate package installation and configuration file deployment.
The tool is suited for users on Arch Linux or derivatives who want a quick path to a functional Hyprland setup without manually installing and configuring each component. It targets those interested in a tiling wayland desktop environment with a pre-integrated set of tools. The project includes preset configurations that can be selected during installation, allowing users to choose from different visual themes and layouts.
Development activity shows ongoing maintenance with regular commits and active community engagement through a Discord server. The project maintains documentation including a wiki with keybinds and FAQ sections, and video walkthroughs demonstrating the installation process have been produced to guide users through setup.
