Highly customizable Wayland bar for Sway and Wlroots based compositors. ✌️ 🎉
The Lua configuration API provides a scriptable backend for Hyprland configuration, enabling dynamic behavior, reactive logic, and custom layout providers. It interfaces with the core compositor through a set of C++ bindings that expose Hyprland's internal state and actions to the Lua environment.
Modern compositor with the looks
Hyprland provides the latest Wayland features, dynamic tiling, all the eyecandy, powerful plugins and much more, while still being lightweight and responsive
