Switch seamlessly between your productive Hyprland desktop and an optimized Steam Big Picture gaming environment.\n\n## 🎮 What This Does\n\n- **Toggle between environments**: Press `Super + F12` to instantly switch from Hyprland to Steam Big Picture mode\n- **Gaming-optimized**: Uses `gamescope` compositor for better gaming performance and compatibility\n- **Zero configuration**: Everything works out of the box after running the script\n\n## ✨ Features\n\n- 🚀 **One-command setup** - Run the script and you're done\n- ⌨️ **Keyboard shortcut** - `Super + F12` to switch to gaming mode\n- 🔄 **Bi-directional switching** - Easy return to desktop from gaming mode\n- 🖥️ **Automatic resolution detection** - Uses your current display resolution and refresh rate\n\n## 📋 Requirements\n\n- **Omarchy** (or Arch Linux + Hyprland)\n- **Steam** installed via Omarchy menu (`Super + Alt + Space` → Install → Gaming → Steam)\n- Internet connection for downloading dependencies\n\n## 🚀 Installation\n\n### Quick Install\n```bash\n# Download the script\ncurl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cephalization/omarchy-steam-gaming-mode/main/setup-gaming-mode.sh -o setup-gaming-mode.sh\n\n# Make it executable and run\nchmod +x setup-gaming-mode.sh\n./setup-gaming-mode.sh\n```\n\n### Manual Install\n```bash\ngit clone https://github.com/cephalization/omarchy-steam-gaming-mode.git\ncd omarchy-steam-gaming-mode\nchmod +x setup-gaming-mode.sh\n./setup-gaming-mode.sh\n```\n\n## 🎯 Usage\n\n### Switch to Gaming Mode\n- **Keyboard**: Press `Super + F12`\n- **Launcher**: Use the 'Gaming Mode' app launcher entry\n- **Terminal**: Run `/usr/local/bin/switch-to-gaming`\n\n### Return to Desktop\n- **From Steam Big Picture**: Press `Super + w` or add the return shortcut to Steam Big Picture as a Non-Steam game\n- **Emergency exit**: `Ctrl + Alt + F2`, then run `pkill -9 gamescope`\n\n## 🔧 What Gets Installed\n\nThe script automatically:\n- Installs `gamescope` (Steam's gaming compositor)\n- Installs `mangohud` (performance monitoring)\n- Creates gaming mode switch scripts in `/usr/local/bin/`\n- Adds `Super + F12` keybind to your Hyprland config\n\n## 🛠️ Troubleshooting\n\n### Gaming mode won't start\n- Ensure Steam is installed: Install via Omarchy menu first\n- Test manually: `gamescope -e -f -W 2880 -H 1920 -r 120 -- steam -tenfoot`\n- Check logs: Gaming mode issues are usually gamescope-related\n\n### Can't return to desktop\n- Use the emergency exit: `Ctrl + Alt + F2`, then `pkill -9 gamescope`\n- Check if the \"Return to Desktop\" shortcut exists in Steam\n\n### How do I turn off performance monitoring?\n- There is no easy toggle right now, but you can remove the `--mangoapp` parameter from the `gamescope` command in the `switch-to-gaming` script.\n  - `sudo sed -i 's/--mangoapp//' /usr/local/bin/switch-to-gaming`\n  - Re-run the script to bring it back\n\n## 🎮 Why This Is Awesome\n\nThis setup gives you the **best of both worlds**:\n\n- **Hyprland**: Tiling window manager productivity for development and daily tasks\n- **Gaming Mode**: Optimized Steam Big Picture experience with better game compatibility\n\nPerfect for developers who want a productive Linux desktop but also enjoy gaming without the hassle of troubleshooting Wayland compatibility issues or suboptimal performance.\n\n## 🤝 Contributing\n\nIssues and pull requests welcome!
