Hyprland

This wiki page is about Hyprland, a tiling window manager. Hyprland is available in Alpine Linux community repository for edge release.

Refer to hyprland Tutorial to get started on using Hyprland.

Installation

The package hyprland exists in community for edge (and will be there in alpine releases >= 3.21)

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 have

    misc {
        force_default_wallpaper = 0
    }

in your Hyprland config file.
