KiroTux

KiroTux is built on Kiro: the Wayland line of Kiro, ready-made ISOs you get with a donation. Each KiroTux ISO boots straight into a tuned Wayland desktop, installs it with a Wayland installer, and comes with a premium settings app built for that desktop.

Three editions so far: KiroTux Hyprland DMS (Hyprland with DankMaterialShell), KiroTux Niri DMS (niri with DankMaterialShell) and KiroTux Hyprland Noctalia (Hyprland with Noctalia).

Current releases: Hyprland DMS v26.10.08 (October 8, 2026), Niri DMS v26.10.11 (October 11, 2026) and Hyprland Noctalia v26.10.16 (October 16, 2026, the first Noctalia release). See Release Notes for what is in them and Donate and Download to get it.
