✨ Some notes on installation / Pre-requisites

💬 install a backup tool like snapper or timeshift. and Backup your system before installing hyprland using this script. This script does NOT include uninstallation of packages as it may break your system due to shared packages / libraries.

• This install script was tested on Minimal Fedora using Fedora Everything Link
• This script is meant to install in any Fedora Work stations and its Spins.
• if starting from scratch, recommended spin to install is the Sway Spin. However, I have tested this script in Fedora Workstation (gnome), Plasma Spin and Sway
• I have not tested in any other spin. However, if you decided to try, recommend to install SDDM. Apart from GDM and SDDM, any other Login Manager may not work nor launch Hyprland. However, hyprland can be launched through tty by type Hyprland
• If you have nvidia, and wanted to use proprietary drivers, uninstall nouveau first (if installed). This script will be installing proprietary nvidia drivers and will not deal with removal of nouveau.

⚠️ WARNING! If you have GDM already as log-in manager, DO NOT install SDDM

• You will likely to encounter issues

⚠️ WARNING! nwg-look takes long time to install.

• nwg-look is a utility to costumize your GTK theme. It's a LXAppearance like. Its a good tool though but this package is entirely optional

✨ Costumize the packages and COPR Repos

• inside the install-scripts folder, you can edit 00-hypr-pkgs.sh, copr.sh, etc. Care though as the Hyprland Dots might not work properly
• default GTK theme if agreed to be installed is Tokyo night GTK themes (dark and light) + Tokyo night SE icons + Bibata Cursor

💫 SDDM and GTK Themes offered

• If you opted to install GTK Themes, Icons and Cursor offered are Tokyo Nights. LINK & Bibata Cursor Modern Ice

🔔 NOTICE TO NVIDIA OWNERS

❗ some known issues

• reports from members of my discord, states that some users of nvidia are getting stuck on sddm login. credit to @Kenni Fix stated was

 while in sddm press ctrl+alt+F2 or F3
log into your account
`lspci -nn`, find the id of your nvidia card
`ls /dev/dri/by-path` find the matching id
`ls -l /dev/dri/by-path` to check where the symlink points to 
)
7. add "env = WLR_DRM_DEVICES,/dev/dri/cardX" to the ENVvariables config (.config/hypr/configs/ENVariables.conf)  ; X being where the symlink of the gpu points to

• more info from the hyprland wiki Hyprland Wiki Link

• Fedora Sway Specific - swaylock conflicts with swaylock-effects. Lock screen would be only white. If decided to remove swaylock in favor with swaylock-effects, sway will be removed. So care
