colorshell

(previously retrozinndev/Hyprland-Dots)

Note

personal dotfiles moved to another repo! see retrozinndev/Hyprland-Dots

My Hyprland desktop shell that I keep improving almost everyday! 🤩 (i love doing this)

This repository includes a desktop shell made with GTK, using Astal and AGS + TypeScript. It really took me a lot of time to make this, so please star the repo if you like it! ⭐

🌄 Screenshots

🎨 Colors

All the shell colors are dynamically generated from your wallpaper! This is possible by using pywal16(fork of the archived pywal project), a cli tool to generate color schemes on the fly.

🖼️ Wallpapers

When you're at the Installation process, you can choose whether to install the wallpapers. Or if you haven't, you can just create a directory ~/wallpapers in your home ~ and put images you want to use as wallpapers!

You can select any of the images inside ~/wallpapers by pressing SUPER + W or by accessing the Control Center and clicking in the image icon on top.

ℹ️ Source

None of the wallpapers available in this repo are made by me! You can find sources inside the WALLPAPERS.md file. (it took me a lot of time to make this sources list 😭)

⌨️ Binds

You can see pre-configured bindings in the Wiki/Bindings page!

🌐 Internationalization

Colorshell supports i18n! The shell automatically matches the shell language with the system's, if available.
Currently, there's support for the following languages:

• English (United States), maintained by @retrozinndev
• Português (Brasil), maintained by @retrozinndev

Don't see your language here? You can contribute and make translations too!
You can do so by forking this repository, translating the shell in your fork and then opening a pull request to this repository, simple as that! (I'll create a more detailed guide for that soon)
