# Foreword
2022-08-24 06:41:31 +02:00
Due to their proprietary nature, Nvidia GPUs have limited compatibility with
Hyprland. If you want to try Hyprland on Nvidia regardless
(many people have reported successes), follow the [Nvidia page](../../Nvidia)
after installing Hyprland.
2022-08-12 20:46:36 +02:00
## Distros
2022-08-12 20:46:36 +02:00
Arch, NixOS and openSUSE Tumbleweed are very supported. For any other distro
(not based on Arch/Nix) you might have varying amounts of success. However,
since Hyprland is extremely bleeding-edge, distros like Pop!\_OS, Ubuntu, etc.
might have **major** issues running Hyprland.
2022-08-12 20:46:36 +02:00
## Installation
2022-08-12 20:46:36 +02:00
Installing Hyprland is very easy. Either you install it from your local package
provider (if they provide pkgs for Hyprland) or you install/build it yourself.

Hyprland is part of factory, starting with snapshot 20230411. To install it simply use zypper
```sh
sudo zypper in hyprland
```
or install the "hyprland" package via YaST2 Software.
2022-08-22 14:27:36 +02:00
Alternatively, you can also follow the instructions under ["Manual (Manual Build)"](#manual-manual-build)
to build Hyprland yourself.
Note: _Hyprland is not available for Leap, as most libraries (and compiler) that Hyprland needs are too old._
{{< /tab >}}
{{< tab "Fedora*" >}}
On Fedora 39 and Rawhide, run:
```sh
sudo dnf install hyprland
```
If you are on an older version of Fedora, you can also compile it yourself by following the instructions [here](https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland/discussions/284)

```
you will also need to build the latest wayland, wayland-protocols, and libdisplay-info tagged releases from source
for more info refer to the [Ubuntu Guide For Installing And Building Hyprland Gist](https://gist.github.com/Vertecedoc4545/3b077301299c20c5b9b4db00f4ca6000)
{{< hint type=warning >}}
Please note that since Ubuntu is generally behind with dependencies, it's not guaranteed
that the build process will work at all. Even if it is, it's likely that it will break at some point in the future.
Refer to the gist if anything fails.

{{< tab "Void Linux*" >}}
2023-11-04 20:36:56 +01:00
Hyprland is not available for Void Linux from the official repositories [as Hyprland doesn't build against tagged wlroots](https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/37544),
2023-06-27 13:34:27 +02:00
however template files are available [from a third party](https://github.com/Makrennel/hyprland-void) which can build Hyprland [using xbps-src](https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages).
For further instructions on building with the third party resource, refer to the [README](https://github.com/Makrennel/hyprland-void/blob/master/README.md).
{{< hint type=warning >}}
As always, when using third party scripts exercise caution and understand what the script does.

2022-08-12 20:46:36 +02:00
_openSUSE dependencies_:

```
2022-08-22 14:27:36 +02:00
(this should also work on RHEL/Fedora if you remove `Mesa-libGLESv3-devel` and `pkgconfig(xcb-errors)`)
_FreeBSD dependencies_:
```plain
pkg install git pkgconf gmake gcc evdev-proto cmake wayland-protocols wayland libglvnd libxkbcommon libinput cairo pango pixman libxcb
pkg install meson jq `pkg rquery %dn wlroots` hwdata libdisplay-info libliftoff
export CC=gcc CXX=g++ LDFLAGS="-static-libstdc++ -static-libgcc"
```
_Ubuntu 23.04 dependencies_:
refer to the Ubuntu tab above
2022-08-12 20:46:36 +02:00
Please note Hyprland builds `wlroots`. Make sure you have the dependencies of
wlroots installed, you can make sure you have them by installing wlroots
separately (Hyprland doesn't mind)
Also note that Hyprland uses the C++23 standard, so both your compiler
and your C++ library has to support that (`gcc>=13.0.0` or `clang>=15`).
On Clang-based systems libc++ may be used by default, so until libc++
supports C++23 you have to pass `-stdlib=libstdc++` or switch to GCC.
2022-08-12 20:46:36 +02:00
### CMake (recommended)
```Plain
2022-08-12 20:46:36 +02:00
git clone --recursive https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland
cd Hyprland
2023-10-14 19:52:53 +02:00
make all && sudo make install
2022-08-12 20:46:36 +02:00
```
2023-05-03 22:31:29 +02:00
_CMake is always recommended as it's the intended way Hyprland should be installed._
2022-08-12 20:46:36 +02:00
### Meson
```plain
meson subprojects update --reset
meson setup build
ninja -C build
ninja -C build install --tags runtime,man
2022-08-12 20:46:36 +02:00
```
2022-08-13 01:47:48 +02:00
Refer to [Debugging](../../Contributing-and-Debugging) to see how to build &
debug.

## Custom installation (legacy renderer, etc)
cd into the hyprland repo.
for legacy renderer:
```plain
2023-10-14 19:52:53 +02:00
make legacyrenderer && sudo cp ./build/Hyprland /usr/bin && sudo cp ./example/hyprland.desktop /usr/share/wayland-sessions
2022-08-12 20:46:36 +02:00
```
_please note the legacy renderer may not support some graphical features._
2022-08-12 20:46:36 +02:00
<br/><br/> Any other config: (replace \[PRESET\] with your preset, `release`
`debug` `legacyrenderer` `legacyrendererdebug`)
```plain
2023-10-14 19:52:53 +02:00
make [PRESET] && sudo cp ./build/Hyprland /usr/bin && sudo cp ./example/hyprland.desktop /usr/share/wayland-sessions
2022-08-12 20:46:36 +02:00
```
## Custom Build flags
To apply custom build flags, you'll have to ditch make.
Supported custom build flags:
```plain
2022-08-12 20:46:36 +02:00
NO_XWAYLAND - Removes XWayland support
2023-01-11 16:29:34 +01:00
NO_SYSTEMD - Removes systemd dependencies
2022-08-12 20:46:36 +02:00
```
How to?
Go to the root repo.
Then, configure CMake:
```plain
2022-08-12 20:46:36 +02:00
mkdir -p build && cmake --no-warn-unused-cli -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=Release -D<YOUR_FLAG>:STRING=true -H./ -B./build -G Ninja
```
Change `<YOUR_FLAG>` to one of the custom build flags. You **are allowed to**
use multiple at once, then add another `-D<YOUR_FLAG_2>:STRING=true`
You can of course also change the `BUILD_TYPE` to `Debug`.
Now, build:
```plain
2022-08-22 00:05:38 +02:00
cmake --build ./build --config Release --target all -j $(nproc)
2022-08-12 20:46:36 +02:00
```
If you configured in `Debug`, change the `--config` to `Debug` as well.
Now, of course, install manually.
```plain
2022-08-12 20:46:36 +02:00
sudo cp ./build/Hyprland /usr/bin && sudo cp ./example/hyprland.desktop /usr/share/wayland-sessions
2023-01-22 08:26:42 +01:00
```
