➡UltraCandy⬅ is a Hyprland configuration cohesively themed entirely through matugen with extra quality of life features.

Features:

• Light and Dark mode through matugen along with other matugen themeing options

• Automatic idle-inhbitor activated when waybar/hyprpanel is toggled off whenever you want extra screen space since you won't be able to activate it through waybar's/hyprpanel's idle-inhibitor button. This is great for lighter resource usage as well while still being able to keep your device awake.

• Custom control center to easily modify waybar if waybar option is chosen, hyprland windows,the dock, launch hyprpicker, adjust opacty, change dock start icon,enable/disable xray mode and hyprsunset/hyprshade. (I like to wsitch to islands mode for dark backgrounds and the blurred bar for lighter backgrounds).

• Custom media-player, weather widget and system-monitor widget

• Waybar, nwg-dock-hyprland and swaync intgrated with the desktop theme

• Extensive rofi menus: wifi, bluetooth, application finder, rofi-menus launcher for: animation-switcher, keybinds, clipboard, emoji-picker, glyph-picker

• System-wide color generation through Matugen for GTK3/4 & QT6 applications plus most of waybar if it's chosen and orofi windows while Wallust themes themes the terminal and parts of waybar.

• The background is also cohesively auto-generated and applied for sddm, rofi, wlogout and hyprlock (GDM backgrounds have to be set manually through the 'GDM Settings' app but it's available as an option).

• Hyprexpo workspaces overview

Installation

I recommend running the script from Hyprland but it will also work from other DEs or the TTY.

Needed packages: git, hyprland, kitty

Run:

git clone https://github.com/HyprCandy/ultracandyinstall.git && cd ultracandyinstall

followed by:

bash UltraCandy_installer.sh

To update dotfiles run this in the terminal:

Support

➡ ❣️ If you like my project, your support will mean a lot ⬅ You can also grab bits and bops from the main repo and help spread the word of this cohesive Hyprland setup 🙂.

NOTE: I wrote systemd services for these features so you'd have to run the script for them to work but other configs should work fine without my setup if you don't want it ... I think

Since I'm an aeronautics graduate and not a programmer it took me ages to learn how to set up everything during my free time before creating this repo. It was stressful but worthwhile in the end. Anyway checkout the little showcase below:
