Flexbile QtQuick based desktop shell toolkit.
Hosted on: outfoxxed's gitea, github
Documentation available at quickshell.outfoxxed.me or can be built from the quickshell-docs repo.
Some fully working examples can be found in the quickshell-examples repo.
Quickshell is still in alpha and there will be breaking changes.
Commits with breaking qml api changes will contain a ! at the end of the scope
(thing!: foo) and the commit description will contain details about the broken api.
This repo has a nix flake you can use to install the package directly:
{
inputs = {
nixpkgs.url = "nixpkgs/nixos-unstable";
quickshell = {
url = "git+https://git.outfoxxed.me/outfoxxed/quickshell";
# THIS IS IMPORTANT
# Mismatched system dependencies will lead to crashes and other issues.
inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
};
};
}Quickshell's binary is available at quickshell.packages.<system>.default to be added to
lists such as environment.systemPackages or home.packages.
The package contains several features detailed in BUILD.md which can be enabled or disabled with overrides:
quickshell.packages.<system>.default.override {
withJemalloc = true;
withQtSvg = true;
withWayland = true;
withX11 = true;
withPipewire = true;
withPam = true;
withHyprland = true;
}Note: by default this package is built with clang as it is significantly faster.
Quickshell has a third party AUR package available under the same name. It is not managed by us and should be looked over before use.
Caution
The AUR provides no way to force the quickshell package to rebuild when the Qt version changes. If you experience crashes after updating Qt, please try rebuilding Quickshell against the current Qt version before opening an issue.
Quickshell has a third party Fedora COPR package available under the same name. It is not managed by us and should be looked over before use.
