This is my configuration of Hyprland (Wayland) and Qtile (Xorg & Wayland) for Arch. This package includes an installation script to install and setup the required components.
If you don't want to use the rolling release, you can download the latest release the latest release https://gitlab.com/stephan-raabe/dotfiles/-/releases or choose the the latest tag https://gitlab.com/stephan-raabe/dotfiles/-/tags and download the zip.
```
# 1.) Change into your Downloads folder where you have downloaded the release to
The installation script will prepare the configuration files in a folder ~/dotfiles-versions/[version] before copying into the final destination in ~/dotfiles
If you want to modify the installation files just before the copy procedure starts, you can create a file hook.sh in the folder ~/dotfiles-versions
You can delete folders and files or update existing configurations.
```
#!/bin/bash
rm -rf ~/dotfiles-versions/$version/vim/
rm -rf ~/dotfiles-versions/$version/nvim/
```
This script will for example remove the vim and nvim folder before the installation. The symbolic link will not be created because the source folder doesn't exits.
You can find a template in .install/templates/hook.sh
There is no official Hyprland support for Nvidia hardware. However, you might make it work properly following this page.

That's why NVIDIA GPUs are currently not supported by my dotfiles. But in upcoming releases, I will try to setup Hyprland for NVIDIA based on the article above.

You can create custom variations by copying a file from the ~/dotfiles/hypr/conf subfolders like monitor/default.conf, give the file a custom name (e.g., mymonitor.conf) and select the variation in the settings script in the corresponding section.
You can also edit the file custom.conf which is included at the bottom of the hyprland.conf and can hold you personal configurations.
You can also edit the file directly in the settings script in the section Custom.
