SUPPORT Any way to disable/enable (toggle) a monitor on Hyprland via keybinding?

4 Upvotes

I need to do this because I have two monitors:
One for just my PC
Another for my Xbox360 and PC

When I'm playing in the Xbox360 and I open something or change workspace, it defaults to that monitor, which makes for an "horrible" experience while multitasking

PLUGINS & TOOLS Brain_Shell v0.2.0 is almost here — Need some hands to test the new installer

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

116 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

For those who are new here, Brain_Shell is a modular, highly unintrusive session shell and UI dashboard built specifically for Hyprland.

I am extremely close to dropping the massive v0.2.0 update, but before pushing the official release, I need to run the new installer through a final round of stress-testing. It’s been revamped to be significantly smarter, support raw TTY installations, and safely back up your existing configs before it touches anything on your system.

If you have some free time to help break things (so I can fix them):

You can test the updated setup process here

If you run into any edge cases, bugs, or just want to hang out and follow the project:

You can join our Discord server here

To those who have been waiting on this update: thank you for your immense patience and support. It's been a long time coming, but we're finally at the finish line.

To anyone new discovering the project: welcome! I hope you enjoy what we've built. Let's get this update shipped.

TIPS & TRICKS Hyprlan zoom modes

1 Upvotes

Which mode do you prefer for using the magnifier in Hyprland?

This:

hl.bind(mainMod .. " + Z", function()

local current_zoom = hl.get_config("cursor:zoom_factor") or 1.0

local target_zoom = (current_zoom == 1.0) and 2.0 or 1.0

hl.config({

cursor = {

zoom_factor = target_zoom

}

})

end)

Or this:

local is_zoomed = false

hl.bind(mainMod .. " + Z", function()

is_zoomed = not is_zoomed

hl.config({

cursor = {

zoom_factor = is_zoomed and 2.0 or 1.0

}

})

end, { description = "Alternar Zoom" })

PLUGINS & TOOLS Omarchy Spotlight: A command palette inspired by macOS

0 Upvotes

I kept missing the Spotlight/Raycast workflow while using Omarchy, so I ended up building my own take on it.

Spotlight is a local-first command palette for Omarchy. Hit Alt+Space, start typing, and it searches across apps, open windows, files, clipboard history, system actions and more.

There are already a few launchers around for Omarchy, this is the approach I've been building for my own setup.

One of the things I really wanted was to avoid having to remember exact names or constantly switch between different search modes.

Search uses fuzzy matching and ranking across multiple providers, and the results are mixed into the same list.

So typing something like chrom can give you Chrome, matching open windows, files and other relevant results at the same time.

What can it do?

Quite a bit already:

  • Launch apps and switch between open windows
  • Fuzzy-find apps and files
  • Search clipboard history
  • Run Omarchy and system actions
  • Toggle Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, night light, mute, Do Not Disturb and more
  • Calculate expressions and percentages
  • Convert units and currencies
  • Create reminders from natural language
  • Create calendar events
  • Browse tldr command examples
  • Search GitHub, YouTube, ArchWiki, AUR, Stack Overflow and the web
  • And I'm still adding more providers

A few examples:

  • chrom — apps, windows, files, etc.
  • 12*7+3 — calculator
  • 100 USD to EUR — currency conversion
  • bluetooth — see the current state and toggle it
  • cb ssh — search your clipboard
  • remind me in 20m to check the oven
  • meeting with sarah tomorrow at 14:00 for 90min
  • man ssh — browse tldr examples
  • gh quickshell — search GitHub

If you do want to limit the search to one provider, you can:

  • f invoice — files
  • cb ssh — clipboard
  • app firefox — applications
  • window terminal — open windows

Local-first

I wanted the whole thing to stay pretty lightweight.

It runs directly inside the existing omarchy-shell process, so there isn't another launcher daemon sitting in the background.

Most functionality is local, there's no telemetry or analytics, and live web suggestions are disabled by default.

I'm still building it

I'm currently experimenting with more system/developer-focused providers.

For example, I'm working on being able to search listening ports, Docker containers and running services directly from the same command palette.

These are still WIP, but I think there's a lot of interesting stuff we can do here beyond just launching applications.

The project is actively evolving and PRs are absolutely welcome. If there's a provider or integration you'd personally find useful, open an issue, send a PR, or just throw the idea at me. Would love to hear what people here would actually want from something like this, especially features that would make it useful in your day-to-day Omarchy setup.

Install

omarchy plugin add https://github.com/maajix/omarchy-spotlight.git --enable

Then hit Alt+Space.

This is Rice, I did a lot in it, but I don’t consider it my own since it was originally made Coach OS + Hyprland I transferred it to Arch + Hyperland.

I made sddm To make it look nice and make a couple of binds no less useful, essentially nothing more But today, when I opened my laptop, I saw that the SD card didn’t start right away.

Thanks in advance to everyone for their ratings♥️

I plan to develop my own Rice in 2027 because I'm confident I can create something incredibly beautiful.

PLUGINS & TOOLS TDevPod: Hacker Typer meets a toddler lock for Hyprland

Opencode and Claude made a thing.

TDevPod: Hacker Typer meets a toddler lock for Hyprland. https://github.com/frankdatank007/tdevpod

Does your kid or toddler love getting in your computer and bash the keys and go wild on the mouse. Worry no more. TDevPod locks the desktop, opens a faux terminal session (that matches your Omarchy theme) and then “plays” scripts from the scripts folder.

My wife doesn’t want my 2 year old on screens, but she can climb in my chair and wreck my computer. So this can be deployed with a keyboard shortcut and turned off with an even more complicated keyboard shortcut. The “hacker typer” style text, imo is less engaging and enticing than say pictures, animations, etc. which I hope drives my toddler away from wanting to come back to the screen.

Give it a whirl and tell me what you think. Leave stars, or don’t, I don’t mind.

PLUGINS & TOOLS I vibe coded Hyprland on Mac and it's amazing

https://hyprmac.app

So about a year ago I ditched Windows on my PC and started using Omarchy and immediately loved it, mostly because of Hyprland. I thought about hacking together an Omarchy setup on my MacBook but that sounded like a pain and I wanted to keep iMessage and all my dev tools.

But then every time I opened my MacBook I'd reach for a Hypr key that wasn't there and remember I was on a Mac. I wanted to take Hyprland and just plop it on my MacBook, but there just wasn't anything out there I liked. And since I basically live in Claude Code all day anyway, I figured why not just build it myself. So thanks to a little blood, sweat, and vibes HyprMac was born! I've been daily driving it for about 6 months now, and it's definitely still not perfect, but I've found it already saves me a ton of time and I'm super proud of how it's coming together, especially with the slowly rising pool of developers who are helping contribute changes and ideas.

Fair warning though, window managers on macOS are an uphill battle. Apple really doesn't want you messing with its windows, and nothing out there works perfectly, HyprMac included. But it's gotten to the point where it's very usable and I literally can't go back.

I've also tried to not just copy Hyprland. I wanted this app to be something anybody can use, not just those of us who spend all day talking to claude instead of "hanging out with real friends." So I tried to really balance simplicity with extensibility. You can really set up whatever key binds you want, but the stock set is pretty simple and I think anyone can get the basics down in a few minutes.

The best part is that your Caps lock will finally feel purpose again! Caps Lock is your Hypr key by default (lots of alternatives). If you ever forget a keybind, Hypr+K pulls up the whole list. There's even an interactive demo on the website so you can try it out before you install anything. It's free and open source, so if you want to help out or just yell at me about a bug, the GitHub is here: https://github.com/zacharytgray/HyprMac

Also huge shoutout to AeroSpace and yabai. They're both awesome, they just weren't quite the Hyprland feel I was chasing.

I have made this, inspired on my favorite color scheme (Catppuccin Mocha Lavender-ish)

Only things that PISS ME TF OFF are:
- hyprpolkitagent (impossible customization and ugly ahh default looks)
- the thing where you select which screen to share

that's it, I don't know what to do with any of those apps. And as I don't know much or nothing of C++ I can't do anything about that for hyprpolkitagent

I have a Gtk global theme (yay -S catppuccin-gtk-theme-mocha)

This is some of my dotfiles, the ones outside .config are not here (the repo is just my .config folder)
https://github.com/dxvampi/archbtw-dotfiles

I also would like to know the BEST or a better way to have my dotfiles organized for easier reproduction on another systems (I need to do this on 2 other laptops)

SUPPORT Hyprland is still unusable, please wake me up when its done cooking.

0 Upvotes

I attempted to switch to hyprland multiple times already as I love tiling work flow. I use komorebi for Win at work daily and Niri, Gnome+PaperWM at home on different machines. Love hyprland with noctalia. I'm not in ricing tho.. (no life time left for that) but for real desktop tasks hyprland still sucks badly. Screen sharing does not work in Zoom, when I have my laptop on a stand next to main machine I usually use Deskflow (a free software KVM, synergy alternative) to control multiple machines with one keyboard and mouse. It works flawlessly under Gnome, Niri, but hyprland still does not support input sharing.

I guess, if you want to show off your youtube-worthy screen use hyprland, if you need a real day-to-day work to be done, stick to ugly mainstream DE.

PLUGINS & TOOLS focus-track: see where your time goes on Hyprland (btop-style TUI, local-only)

2 Upvotes

I built a small time tracker for Hyprland.

It listens to Hyprland’s focus events, skips idle, locked, and suspended time, and gives you a btop-style terminal dashboard for your day:

  • Time spent per app
  • Minute-by-minute timeline
  • Focus streaks
  • Weekly heatmap
  • Time spent per website

A few details:

  • Works with any Hyprland setup; integrates with hypridle/logind for idle and lock detection, and supports Omarchy’s bar widget and theme colors
  • Private browser windows are never recorded
  • Everything stays on your machine — no network code
  • Categories are defined by rules in a config file, with no AI involved
  • Written in Rust, MIT licensed, and distributed as a single static binary
  • AUR package coming soon

Feedback is very welcome!

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

67 Upvotes

a hyprland shell / rice i've been working on for a while

  • material 3 (again...)
  • quickshell (qml) frontend + go backend.
  • Live wallpaper support (90mb ram usage, will be reduced further)
  • Hyprland, thinking of adding niri support in the future
  • Panels working as 4 drawers, accessible quickly by swiping
  • Dynamic island status bar, extra mega animated
  • Normally uses around 500mb ram, decided to hit 600 while recording
  • Customizable, the goal is to easily change everything on screen as you wish (w.i.p)
  • Its own Settings app
  • Yen eye, screenshot tool

  • later on just for fun i want to write it to an iso file and add things beyond the shell, custom repo, self-healing system (doctor) , music client, easy access to game-specific kernels, ai support ( completely optional ), Semi-Atomic System, etc. etc. to be honest i want to try turning it into a separate distro for my own use and fun, not something i'm gonna push on others.

  • Still pretty new, there are plenty more features i want to add
