## Overrides
You can override the package through `.override` or `.overrideAttrs`. This is

```sh
$ nix repl
nix-repl> :lf "github:hyprwm/Hyprland"
nix-repl> :bl outputs.packages.x86_64-linux.hyprland.override { nvidiaPatches = true; } # option = value
```
Then you can run Hyprland from the built path.
