Personal Hyprland supplement and post-install bootstrap for Arch Linux. This is my personal setup — not a distro, just my stuff. It exists so I can reinstall Arch + Hyprland and get my daily-driver setup back with one command.

About

Based on OMARCHY, my first linux setup, although it has been customized to suit my needs

• Post-install helper for Hyprland configs
• Installs my base packages from pacman & AUR
• Stows my dotfiles safely
• Restores my preferred defaults for Hyprland usage
• This repo is aiming to be a keyboard-driven Hyprland setup.
• $mainMod is usually the Windows key, but I swap it with ALT. Check the config in input.conf
• Contains a few themes from the Omarchy community — easily install or update themes using theme-install

⚠️ IMPORTANT KEYBINDS SUPER + SHIFT + / — Open keybinds info

This repo assumes Arch Linux with Hyprland is already installed.

Default Apps

My Hyprland config uses the following defaults:

Purpose	App

These apps are referenced directly in Hyprland keybinds.
