is a complete desktop shell for [niri](https://github.com/YaLTeR/niri), [Hyprland](https://hyprland.org/), [MangoWC](https://github.com/DreamMaoMao/mangowc), [Sway](https://swaywm.org), [labwc](https://labwc.github.io/), [Scroll](https://github.com/dawsers/scroll), [Miracle WM](https://github.com/miracle-wm-org/miracle-wm), and other Wayland compositors. It replaces waybar, swaylock, swayidle, mako, fuzzel, polkit, and everything else you'd normally stitch together to make a desktop.\n\n## Repository Structure\n\nThis is a monorepo containing both the shell interface and the core backend services:\n\n```\nDankMaterialShell/\n├── quickshell/         # QML-based shell interface\n│   ├── Modules/        # UI components (panels, widgets, overlays)\n│   ├── Services/       # System integration (audio, network, bluetooth)\n│   ├── Widgets/        # Reusable UI controls\n│   └── Common/         # Shared resources and themes\n├── core/               # Go backend and CLI\n│   ├── cmd/            # dms CLI and dankinstall binaries\n│   ├── internal/       # System integration, IPC, distro support\n│   └── pkg/            # Shared packages\n├── distro/             # Distribution packaging\n│   ├── fedora/         # Fedora RPM specs\n│   ├── debian/         # Debian packaging\n│   └── nix/            # NixOS/home-manager modules\n└── flake.nix           # Nix flake for declarative installation\n```\n\n## See it in Action\n\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\n\nhttps://github.com/user-attachments/assets/1200a739-7770-4601-8b85-695ca527819a\n\n\u003c/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMore Screenshots\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/summary\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\n\n\u003cimg src=\"https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/203a9678-c3b7-4720-bb97-853a511ac5c8\" width=\"600\" alt=\"Desktop\" /\u003e\n\n\u003cimg src=\"https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/a937cf35-a43b-4558-8c39-5694ff5fcac4\" width=\"600\" alt=\"Dashboard\" /\u003e\n\n\u003cimg src=\"https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/2da00ea1-8921-4473-a2a9-44a44535a822\" width=\"450\" alt=\"Launcher\" /\u003e\n\n\u003cimg src=\"https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/732c30de-5f4a-4a2b-a995-c8ab656cecd5\" width=\"600\" alt=\"Control Center\" /\u003e\n\n\u003c/div\u003e\n\n\u003c/details\u003e\n\n## Installation\n\n```bash\ncurl -fsSL https://install.danklinux.com | sh\n```\n\nOne command installs DMS and all dependencies on Arch, Fedora, Debian, Ubuntu, openSUSE, or Gentoo.\n\n**[Manual installation guide](https://danklinux.com/docs/dankmaterialshell/installation)**\n\n## Features\n\n**Dynamic Theming**\nWallpaper-based color schemes that automatically theme GTK, Qt, terminals, editors (vscode, vscodium), and more using [matugen](https://github.com/InioX/matugen) and dank16.\n\n**System Monitoring**\nReal-time CPU, RAM, GPU metrics and temperatures with [dgop](https://github.com/AvengeMedia/dgop).
