Hyprland/Waybar Desktop Environment


After finally fixing my Wayland setup due to pesky NVIDIA graphics cards problems, I have a working riced environment.

  • OS: Arch Linux
  • Window Manager: hyprland
  • Status Bar: waybar
  • Application Launcher: wofi
  • Process monitor: btop
  • Notification server: swaync
  • Wallpapers: Non-daylight images from WikiLovesEarth

The biggest innovation is the usage of the yin-yang symbols for workspaces (a bit like Kirisame Marisa’s Hakkero?): Workspaces Admittedly, the pinzu mahjong symbols also work somewhat.

On the right side, the modules are displayed with a variety of colours grouped by functionality. Modules

The music player server is displayed with an alternative serif font and does not take as much attention as the other modules. When there are no musics in the queue, only a pair of brackets is shown. mpd

Due to the constraints of space on a laptop environment, adapting this to laptop would entail deleting some of the widgets on the right. In particular the caps lock and number lock could be removed and replaced with battery.
