Features
Post Install
Important
Optimized for Arch and Fedora based distros. Tested on Arch, CachyOS, Garuda, Manjaro, Fedora and Nobara. Minimal Arch-based distros recommended for best results.
Warning
On Manjaro, you may need to uninstall conflicting packages: qt5ct, qt6ct and reflector.
Tip
Hit SUPER + F2 for the full keybinding cheat-sheet (SUPER = Windows key).
To update an existing install, run:
chezmoi update
Caution
The installer backs up most configs it touches, but you're still responsible for any critical data. Make personal backups before continuing — I can't take responsibility for any loss.

Note
If hyprland throws config errors on first start, simply change the wallpaper once and they should clear up.
The keybind for changing wallpapers is SUPER + W.
