title: Configuring Hyprland
---
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).
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!_**
{{< callout >}}
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
Every config line is a command followed by a value.
```ini
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.:
```ini
COMMAND = VALUE
```
is valid.
### Comments
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
To configure the "options" of Hyprland, animations, styling, etc. see
[Variables](../Variables).
## Advanced configuring
Some keywords (binds, curves, execs, monitors, etc.) are not variables but
define special behavior.
See all of them in [Keywords](../Keywords) and the sidebar.
