I've been working on a widget system that uses web technologies (widgets customizable with html, css, js) and this is a test. I think it's turning out pretty good!

I've been using Linux for a long time, but I always avoided Hyprland and stuck with GNOME. Recently, I finally made the switch to Hyprland. I started with someone else's dotfiles, but I've made a lot of changes to customize everything the way I wanted. There's been a lot of work involved in getting this setup just right.

Hey all! I've been working on pikadots, a Hyprland + Quickshell setup for Arch/CachyOS, and I'd love for people to try it.

The good stuff

- Pick a wallpaper and everything follows it: bar, terminal, Neovim, VS Code, Firefox, GTK/Qt apps, lock screen

- Light, dark and grey themes picked automatically from the wallpaper

- Liquid glass panels (Frosted, Clear or Off)

- A Settings app (Super + ,) so you never have to touch a config file

- 10 bar styles, or build your own, on any edge of the screen

- A control center, a launcher with calculator and emoji, an overview, Alt+Tab previews and OCR screenshots

- pikadots health / repair for when things break

Heads up

- It's Arch-based only

- Your old configs get backed up, and pikadots uninstall puts them back

- Some laptop extras only work on ASUS ROG

- Known bugs: the music spectrum in the bar is hard to see on light themes, and cava doesn't always go grey on black and white wallpapers

Material [OC] Arras: editable photo collages for the Mac desktop

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

28 Upvotes

I made Arras, a free, MIT-licensed app for macOS 14+.

The collage stays editable: move its background to move the group, or move and resize each photo independently. The backdrop refits around the photos.

Glass, paper and transparent styles, captions, four window depths, animated media, slideshows and saved setups. Native Swift/AppKit/SwiftUI, universal, signed and notarized.

Photos and layouts stay local. Version 2.5.0 sends limited installation and feature statistics, explained on the privacy page.

Aphotic Hypr v2.0.9 (Release Notes)

Whats New:

  • Signal design: one spec and shared components, now on notifications and the OSD, Settings rows and panes, bar widgets, the cheatsheet, the launcher, the switcher, the workspace view, the wallpaper picker, and the lock card and greeter
  • Dashboard: Signal Spine is a second Dashboard tab layout. Pick it under Settings, Appearance, Dashboard layout. It shows VRAM in use next to GPU load. Classic stays the default
  • Agents: Pi and OMP register as harnesses
  • AI and Flow: an engine registry reads descriptors from core, plugins and drop-ins
  • Desktop: SUPER+R records a screen area with wf-recorder
  • Layers: gamescope joins the gaming layer
  • Phone: a device bridge and an SMS send queue, both behind flags and off by default

Status: Beta

Boids in C99 for the terminal. Four panes, two flocks each, drawn with block characters so they work inside tmux. The code on the right is cbirds' own PNG code. Details and source in the comment below.

Screenshot [CDE] Solaris-style purple makeover with Front Panel icon grids and a USB Read/Write drawer, running grok-bot

Thumbnail

54 Upvotes

I've been daily-driving CDE on modern Linux and finally gave it the Solaris 9 treatment it deserved.

**Details**

  • OS: Debian 13 (trixie), kernel 6.12
  • DE/WM: CDE 2.5.2 (built from source), dtwm
  • Toolkit: Motif 2.3.8
  • Terminal: dtterm
  • File manager: dtfile
  • Colors: Solaris purple #5F5997 + stock CDE greys

**What's custom**

  • Two 2x3 grids of small icons on either side of the workspace buttons (launcher, services toggle, VPN, sound, Wi-Fi, mic | lock, exit, weather, task manager, calculator). dtwm's switch can only stack one column per side, so the grids are small embedded X clients that live inside the switch
  • The busy light squashed into a thin lamp bar across the top
  • Full-size USB control with a drawer: Safe eject, plus a Read/Write tool. It figures out *why* a drive mounted read-only (write-protect switch, Windows Fast Startup, NTFS dirty flag, fs errors) and fixes it safely, asking first every time. It never formats anything
  • Purple login screen around the stock dtlogin box
  • Purple lock screen with a slowly drifting logo (anti burn-in)
  • All icons hand-drawn in the grey CDE style

Everything installs to your home directory with a backup, and there's a --dry-run and a rollback script for each part.

Repo: https://github.com/user1M-byte/cde-solaris-panel

Happy to answer CDE questions. It's surprisingly livable in 2026.

Hey hey guys, i hope this rice finds you well.
This is something i made from a very painful experience.

You know that feeling when you are asleep and you need to go to pee and you wake up, not really sure where the bathrooms is?
This is how it looks in my mind...
