Now with unlimited color themes!

For a showcase video see here.

1. Grab a NixOS ISO iso and create a minimal install.

2. Clone the repository and run the install script.

nix-shell -p git just home-manager

git clone https://github.com/abaan404/dotfiles ~/.dotfiles
cd ~/.dotfiles

just install <YOURSYSTEMNAME>

# run hyprland through the tty
Hyprland

Note: if something went wrong, run git reset --hard origin/main to revert to a base state, this will erase any changes made in ~/.dotfiles (but you can get it back from git reflog)

3. Add a .env file with the following entries for weather and unsplash support.

OPENWEATHER_API_KEY= # https://openweathermap.org/api
OPENWEATHER_LOCATION= # https://openweathermap.org/city
UNSPLASH_ACCESS_KEY= # https://unsplash.com/developers

4. Change any configs to your liking (i.e. username, git, etc).

5. Reboot (if needed) and simply run Hyprland from the tty.

• Switch theme with SUPER + H, see ./config/hypr/keybinds.conf for all keybinds.
• while nix is meant to manage your configs, ~/.dotfiles/nix/switch-theme/switch-theme.py will also manage them by copying ~/.dotfiles/config into ~/.config while it overwrites certain keys for theming purposes.
• The wallpaper path (~/Pictures/wallpapers/) and pywal backend (colorthief) can be modified within the ./nix/switch-theme/switch-theme.py file.
• The way this repo is setup, it expects that you have this repo cloned in ~/.dotfiles exactly as is and with your .env variables defined in the same directory.

• end-4/dots-hyprland's wonderful dots and dharmax's guide to get me started on eww.
• Kvantum Theme (modified with pywal) by vinceliuice/Layan-kde.
• my sanity for keeping up with me (it didnt).
