Font
FiraMono Nerd Font.
FiraMono Nerd Font Mono and FiraMono Nerd Font Propo are used as needed.
FiraCode is not used to avoid having to deal with ligatures.

Catppuccin Macchiato Lavender.
Provides a nice balance as a dark mode that isn't too dark.
Lavender is simply a nice pastel purple accent.

Qt & GTK

Qt
sudo pacman -Syu qt6ct kvantum kvantum-qt5
https://github.com/catppuccin/Kvantum
~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf
env = QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME,qt6ct
Using qt6ct, set the style to Kvantum.
Using Kvantum, set the theme to Catppuccin and enable transparency as necessary.
NOTE: Kvantum uses "reduction in opacity" rather than just "opacity", so if the desired opacity is 70%, use 30%.
GTK
sudo pacman -Syu nwg-look gnome-themes-extra
paru -S catppuccin-gtk-theme-mocha catppuccin-gtk-theme-macchiato catppuccin-gtk-theme-frappe catppuccin-gtk-theme-latte
Use nwg-look to set the theme. If that fails, the theme can be manually set.
~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf
env = GTK_THEME,Catppuccin-Macchiato-Standard-Lavender-Dark:dark
env = GTK2_RC_FILES,/usr/share/themes/Catppuccin-Macchiato-Standard-Lavender-Dark/gtk-2.0/gtkrc
