The config is located in `~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf`.
You can tell Hyprland to use a specific configuration file by using the
`--config` (or `-c`) argument.
Hyprland will automatically generate an example config for you if you don't have
one. You can find an example config
[here](https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland/blob/main/example/hyprland.conf).
2022-08-12 20:46:36 +02:00
By removing the line `autogenerated=1` you'll remove the yellow warning.
There is no "reload" keybind. The config is reloaded the moment you save it.
Start a section with `name {` and end in `}` **_in separate lines!_**

The default config is not complete and does not list all the options / features
of Hyprland. Please refer to this wiki page and the pages linked further down
here for full configuration instructions.
**Make sure to read the [Variables](../variables) page as well**. It covers all
the toggleable / numerical options.

## Line style
2022-08-12 20:46:36 +02:00
Every config line is a command followed by a value.
2022-08-12 20:46:36 +02:00
2022-09-24 16:03:37 +02:00
```ini
2022-08-12 20:46:36 +02:00
COMMAND=VALUE
```
The command can be a variable, or a special keyword (described further in this
page)
You are **allowed to** input trailing spaces at the beginning and end.
e.g.:
2022-09-24 16:03:37 +02:00
```ini
2022-08-12 20:46:36 +02:00
COMMAND = VALUE
```
is valid.
### Comments
2022-10-25 15:34:01 +02:00
Comments are started with the `#` character.
If you want to escape it (put an actual `#` and not start a comment) you can use
`##`. It will be turned into a single `#` that WILL be a part of your line.

## Basic configuring
2022-08-12 20:46:36 +02:00
To configure the "options" of Hyprland, animations, styling, etc. see
[Variables](../variables).

## Advanced configuring
2022-08-12 20:46:36 +02:00
Some keywords (binds, curves, execs, monitors, etc.) are not variables but
define special behavior.
2022-08-12 20:46:36 +02:00
See all of them in [Keywords](../keywords) and the sidebar.
