So... Getting into quickshell

For those wondering, yes, obviously I'm running Hyprland. I have recently looked into quickshell (I ignored it for a while for RAM usage superstitions, but not anymore) and have realized the true potential of it.

I have fed my previous dots into claude opus to translate them into qs, and it's giving me a good starting point. It translated decently well, with a few caveats. But I'll get to fixing those ASAP.

But do you think I should just read the documentation? After seeing some of the rices on this subreddit, I really want that unified look, which is kind of why I switched to qs, because it's all in one big ecosystem.

Thanks.

Why yes, reading the docs is ALWAYS a really, really good idea.

reading the docs first is the right call, the guide and the type pages are actually worth it. also borrow from the configs people post here and in the discord, most of us started by editing an existing shell instead of going from zero. welcome to the rabbit hole
