This wiki page is about Hyprland, a wayland based tiling compositor with all the eyecandy, powerful plugins and much more.

Refer to hyprland Tutorial to get started on using Hyprland.

Note: Before installing any desktop,

Installation

Install the package hyprland using the command:

# apk add hyprland

Troubleshooting

Black/Magenta checkerboard background: Hyprland failed to load 1 essential asset

As of Hyprland 0.45.0, upstream shows a scary message (and an ugly graphic) if you don't have their wallpapers installed.

The ugly graphic goes away when you've launched a wallpaper utility, but the scary message remains.

The canonical way to solve this is to install hyprland-wallpapers package using the command:

# apk add hyprland-wallpapers

Or you can just have some file at /usr/share/hypr/wall0.png or /usr/local/share/hypr/wall0.png and modify your config file to have a line as follows:

Contents of ~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf

misc {
        force_default_wallpaper = 0
    }
