Installation
Install the package hyprland using the command:

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 }
