To install Hyprland on NixOS, we provide a NixOS and a Home Manager module.

{{< callout title=Note >}}

• (Required) NixOS Module: enables critical components needed to run Hyprland properly. Without this, you may have issues with XDG Portals, or missing session files in your Display Manager.
• (Optional) Home Manager Module: lets you declaratively configure Hyprland

{{< /callout >}}

NixOS module

{
  programs.hyprland.enable = true;
  # Optional, hint electron apps to use wayland:
  # environment.sessionVariables.NIXOS_OZONE_WL = "1";
}

For more options, see module options.

For other NixOS options, see Hyprland on NixOS.

Home-manager module

Read Hyprland on Home Manager.

For the adventurous, @spikespaz has made a Hyprland module that can be used in Home Manager and NixOS. It can be found here.
