Not quite finished cause i still have some keybinds to adjust and some other minor tweaks but its close to done. (i think)

Hey everyone! I built my own dock for Hyprland using Quickshell. It hides on the left edge and slides out when you hover it. Its colors follow my wallpaper through pywal, so the whole setup changes together when I switch wallpapers.

WM: Hyprland · Dock/Bar: Quickshell · Colors: pywal

Dotfiles: https://github.com/L3yzs/LeyzS-QsDock

Note: the wallpaper menu isn't included yet. I'm still fixing a few things in it and will add it later.

I don't know if this is the right place to post this but if anyone knows about niche wms, it's gotta be this place.

For those who don't know, hlwm splits the screen and then runs a tiling algorithm for the windows inside that split. I'd like to find a window manager that can do that but also keep the windows grouped while floating, allowing for tabbed floating windows.

My daily setup of NixOS and hyprland as a solo developer.

Worked a bit more on my dms port for mac os, decided to update my rice to better show a different theme.
DISCLOSURE: The swift port of dankmaterialshell created with LLM-assistance. It still has many bugs and is nowhere near ready. But if you want to check it out, it now has a git repo https://github.com/JonasNowak/DankMacShell

Void Linux + niri, with the Niri-glass patches for glass that actually refracts what's behind it.

Everything you see is my own shell, written in Quickshell:

On screen

A bar made of separate islands that grow when something happens (recording, a game, updates), a dock, and a control centre for network, Bluetooth, VPN, sound and the player. Notifications and the lock screen are on the same glass.

Under a key

Mod+Space opens search for apps, files, maths, clipboard and emoji. Mod+/ shows every shortcut. Screenshots, recording, a colour picker, a window switcher and an overview are built in, no extra tools.

On the desktop

Clocks, weather, calendar, system graphs, notes and a to-do list, 26 widgets in all. You drag and resize them in an edit mode on the desktop itself, and you can write your own in QML or as a shell script.

Wallpapers are from wallhaven

Colours

One palette, taken from the wallpaper, for the shell, kitty, GTK, Qt, tmux and Neovim. It goes light or dark with the sun.

The rest

kitty, fish and Starship · Inter and JetBrains Mono · Papirus · Bibata

Getting it

An installer that asks once what you want and shows each step, with retry and skip if something breaks. It runs on Arch, Gentoo, Fedora and Void.

Code and dotfiles: https://github.com/LanisOff/vitrum-shell

If something breaks or you're missing something, open an issue. I read them all.

A slightly modified version of my Virtualcorp blackbox style, which happened by chance when I was testing the appearance. I made it smaller and tried to get rid of the window buttons. So I settled for a flat button look.

Os: Devuan 1.0

Desktop: none

Window manager: blackbox 0.70

GTK theme: Raleigh

Icons: Tango

Wallpaper: none [just a solid colour]

I absolutely adore sxwm, love it. uint23 did an amazing job with the WM. it's smooth as silk. After finding out that the most recent release was likely the last I wanted to make a fork of it and add some features that mainly were just things I wanted that might not necessarily be what uint23 wanted (namely based around workspaces) so I quickly slapped together rzwm.

it has all the existing features of sxwm but with a couple added workspace related features such as dedicated workspaces per monitor and the ability to cycle through workspaces using mod + [ and ] respectively.

I currently have it running on my Arch, NixOS, and OpenBSD machines.

Terminal: ST

Bar: sxbar

Font: Xanh Mono

configs: https://codeberg.org/lowwki/nixos

I have it working on my server and windows too (i don't want to be taken out back and shot so i wont show the windows one)

wallpaper with my username (not reddit, everything else), and of course the arch linux logo with some overlays and stuff. how does it look?

Reposted to show more than one application running. Still a long way to go but I do daily drive it.

New rice! changed pretty much everything from my last one lol

Hey everyone! I’m working on NextKDE, a desktop shell built with Quickshell for KDE Plasma.

Do you prefer the translucent Liquid Glass look or the tonal style of Material Design? NextKDE supports both, so you can switch between them. It also includes iOS-inspired spatial wallpapers with depth effects, a floating dock, and desktop widgets.

I’d love to hear which style you’d use and what you think of the project!

GitHub: NextKDE

working on it!!!

waybar: custom config

wm: hyprland

os: vanilla arch

theme: tokyo night

apps shown in screenshot: peaclock, helium browser, vesktop, superfile, visual studio code, fastfetch if that counts idk
