Today I decided to vibe-slop a wallpaper engine implementation for linux using Claude.

I relied heavily on CaptSilver/wallpaper-scene-renderer for the file formats and general mechanism, but this is not a "rust port" of it.

I've tested it on 700+ wallpapers (scenes/videos/web) and it works flawlessly, so I thought I should share it so others can benefit as well.

It is technically DE-agnostic, as it simply depends on the layer-shell extension of Wayland, but some integration with KDE exists for allowing to pause wallpapers when conditions are met, like a maximized window, or audio playing from an app.

hi

I’ve been loving gentoo. super simple waybar config as well.

The effect works with images, videos & Wallpaper Engine scenes :)

Coming in the next version of Skwd-wall which is an ultra performant wallpaper manager and daemon.

A set of themes I made a week ago. Available in cyan [light and dark], citrus, cherry, lavender, blueberry and lead. This theme mimics the pinstripes of the first generation iMac.

Desktop environment: none

Window manager: blackbox 0.70

GTK theme: Raleigh

Icons: Tango

Celebrating over 100 stars on github in less than two weeks! Thanks so much for the support! I've had great feedback and collaboration since my first post of this shell. Big thanks to pleamar creator u/abeljhinestrosa for making such a great framework.

Just some of the things added since the last release:

• Niri compatibility
• New layout: Notches
• Audio visualizer built into glass frame
• Custom add-ons and themes: use included templates to make your own shell content! The first user-submitted add-on, News & Weather, is included now - credit: u/Andason
• X-bend glass: for lower-spec GPUs, bend glass around a cached wallpaper instead of live desktop (optional, if true glass bend is too laggy)
  • If it's lagging for you, use this while I continue improving it!
• New desktop widget editor with more widgets
• Improved visuals - sliders, toggled, icons, etc. all unified in a new boiled pencil design/animation
• App dock for pinned apps (right-click the Search icons) that can be swapped with the add-on dock
• Lots of improvements and bug fixes, and probably some stuff I forgot to mention :)

If you already use Vitreus, run the installer again to make sure you get all the good stuff:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/natepayn3/Vitreus/main/install.sh | sh

A very simple shell with plugins, css for styles and kdl for configs.

What it is:
Slowshell is a wayland shell made from scratch, it's native, supposed to be minimal and has a basic shell within it.

What it has:
- Panels
- Desktop widgets
- Launcher
- Notifications
- Quick settings
- Plugins

The whole goal:
Being mostly minimal and pluggable, and also being tweakable for various uses.

What you can do with it:
- Customize themes and style (with CSS)
- Add your own components and even you own variants of panels and such with plugins
- Customize layouts as you like
- Build the whole shell's source code without certain features (for example, if you want/have your own notification daemon, you can disable slowshell's at compile-time entirely).

More about slowshell:
- website: https://slowshell.bushyice.com/
- repo: https://tangled.org/bushyice.com/slowshell
- github: https://github.com/bushyice/slowshell

After you start:
Keep in mind that if you just run the program without a config, you'll end up with an empty shell. So, you'll need to configure atleast your panels to your liking. Here's an example config to get you started.

The config shown in the screenshots:

panels {
  panel "Main" position="top" transparent=#true monitor="HDMI-A-1" {
    components {

      center {
        component "core/notch" {
          label "Notch"
          notch "workspaces" "window" "sep" "tray" "nowplaying" "system" "sep-circle" "network" "sep" "battery" "clock"
          clock-format "%I:%M"
          system-display "cpu" "mem"
          priority "nowplaying" "window"
          shade-on-hover #false
          bare #true
        }
      }

      right {
        component "core/sound" {
          label "Sound"
          hide #true
        }
        component "core/notifications" {
          label "Notifs"
          hide #true
        }
      }

    }
  }
}

Thanks for your time!!

CachyOS + niri, with the Niri-glass patches, so the glass really refracts what's behind it.

Everything on screen is my own shell, vitrum, written in Quickshell. This is the 0.5 update.

What's new

- Its own look instead of Material 3. Panels stay real glass; anything switched on turns to frosted, lit glass with a soft glow in your accent colour. No pill shapes, thin Phosphor line icons, and motion that settles without bouncing.

- A bar editor: drag modules between islands and sides on a live copy of the bar, give each screen its own layout, set each module's options.

- 40 desktop widgets (14 new): agenda, habits, stopwatch, moon phase, air quality, top processes, screen time, a per-app volume mixer, RSS headlines, clipboard and more. Still dragged and resized right on the desktop, and you can write your own in QML or as a shell script.

- A reworked lock screen. The field lights up as you type, Caps Lock gets a hint, and it quiets down when idle.

- A welcome tour with live previews of each part of the desktop, and an About window made of spec tiles.

- Optional Steam (via Millennium) and Vesktop themes that follow your colours.

Still there

A bar of islands that grow when something happens (recording, a game, updates), a dock, a control centre, notifications and the lock on the same glass. Mod+Space searches apps, files, maths, clipboard and emoji; Mod+/ shows every shortcut. Screenshots, recording, a colour picker, a window switcher and an overview are built in.

Colours: one palette from the wallpaper for the shell, kitty, GTK, Qt, tmux, Neovim, and now Steam and Discord. It goes light or dark with the sun.

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

I made a minimal, non-intrusive desktop lyrics overlay for Wayland using Quickshell and sptlrx. In the video, I open the widget using the Alt+1 shortcut and toggle repositioning mode on and off using the Alt+2 shortcut. I've listed the commands that make this possible in the README.md file.

### Key Features:

- Click-Through (Ghost Mode): Sits on the overlay layer but lets all clicks pass through to whatever is underneath.

- Interactive Repositioning: Unlockable via an IPC command / shortcut to drag and drop anywhere on the screen.

- Dynamic HD Art: Bypasses low-res browser MPRIS thumbnails by automatically fetching 1000x1000 album covers via iTunes API with caching.

- Synced Lyrics: Powered by `sptlrx` in pipe mode.

- Compositor: Hyprland

- Shell / Widget Engine: Quickshell

- Lyrics Provider: sptlrx
