[niri] [dms] Material Design (infosec.pub)

This is my Niri setup which uses Dank Material Shell (https://danklinux.com/) to provide a shell for Niri WM. It automatically uses colours from the wallpaper to generate a colour scheme that is used across the shell and apps like Alacritty, this colour scheme also applies to QT and GTK applications.

Is DMS more complete than noctalia ?

[–] yaslam0x1@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

I've never used noctalia

I like the idea of themes pulling colors from the wallpaper, but I've found that sometimes they pick colors that make the UX worse, or that I just don't like. Is it possible to override?

[–] yaslam0x1@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Yes, this is possible in the Settings app for DMS.

This project looks really cool. I already have my own more minimal rice, but i might have to check this out anyway lol.

Would it be possible to get the dot files? I finally made the switch to Niri last night and hate the default look of waybar.

[–] yaslam0x1@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

The dotfiles can be installed through their website at: https://danklinux.com/
