Installation - retrozinndev/colorshell GitHub Wiki

This is the installation guide for colorshell! Thanks for being interested on it ❤️

Installing a Display Manager

Display Managers are the Login Screen you see when you bootup your GNU/Linux OS. Already have one? Skip to the next step! If you want to know more, go to the Arch Linux's Display Manager Wiki page.

Some of them are:

• sddm (recommended): QML-based DM, can be styled to your liking.
• gdm: Gnome's Display Manager.
• lightdm: Can use various front-ends written in any toolkit. (from Arch Wiki)

Choose one of them, install and enable their respective systemd service.

Dependencies

You'll need to install all the packages listed in Wiki/Dependencies for your system before installing colorshell, quickly install all of them if you're using an Arch Linux, or an Arch-based system, with the command available in Wiki/Dependencies#Quick Install.

Installing the Shell

Now you can start the installation! Now, run:

git clone https://github.com/retrozinndev/colorshell.git
cd ./colorshell && sh ./install.sh 

...and you're done! Now, just restart your Hyprland session(or start a new one if you're using tty) and enjoy! I Hope you like it :D If you find any bug or have a suggestion, share it on the issues page! I appreciate that :)
