What it does
One search card
Type to open an app, calculate or convert units. Type > then a command to run it, : then a name to find an emoji, or ; then a word to search the clipboard history.
Panels for the rest
Notification cards with a history, a Control Center with quick switches and sliders, and an overview of every workspace where you drag windows between tiles.
Why you would want it
Set in Settings, applied at once
The options of every piece are in Settings, and a change shows without a restart.
Follows your look
Theme, accent color and glass settings apply to the bar and the panels.
Shortcuts you can change
Every shortcut has a default and can be changed in Settings.
Files and dependencies
Three levels of configuration
The defaults come with the shell. Two files override them, the later one winning: the first for the machine, the second for you. You write only the keys you change, and the shell reloads when a file changes.
/etc/ hyprnux-shell/ config.json ~/.config/ hyprnux-shell/ config.json
What is optional

Install it on its own
Before you start. Hyprland 0.56 or later and Quickshell 0.3 or later, both in the Arch repositories, and a Hyprland setup (hyprnux-hyprland gives you one).
Packaged for pacman, on Arch Linux. Add the Hyprnux repository once first: Install Hyprnux. On another distribution, build it from its sources.
sudo pacman -S hyprnux-shellYou already have a hyprland.lua: add the shell’s line to it once. The install guide gives it.
You have none: install the Hyprland configuration too, it loads the shell.
sudo pacman -S hyprnux-hyprlandhyprnux-palette comes with the shell: pacman adds it by itself. If you install from package files, give pacman the hyprnux-palette file in the same command.
Remove it
sudo pacman -Rns hyprnux-shellIf something goes wrong, see the install guide.
