Configurable Wayland Programs

Help

Hello,

i am currently setting up my computer, and recently installed niri-wm. if possible, i would like to use bars, launchers, etc. that are configurable with the nixos config / home-manager. does anyone know good options for launchers & bars for wayland?

i am using flakes & home-manager in my config.

I use Waybar on Hyprland, works great for me. Feel free to take anything from my Nix files: nix-config/home/wm/hyprland/home.nix at 2752caa10ebef78d0c41bf950e9d606e8505f5db Ā· gvolpe/nix-config Ā· GitHub

how are you importing the waybar module? cant find it anywhere on search.nixos.org & couldnt find a flake import for it.

Iā€™m using Home Manager, you mentioned you also use it? Hereā€™s the program module: Appendix A. Home Manager Configuration Options

And Iā€™m importing it in the line I linked previously.

I use Wofi, have a look at the ā€œEnvironment detailsā€ section: GitHub - gvolpe/nix-config: šŸ‘¾ NixOS configuration

Iā€™d look at GitHub - rcalixte/awesome-wayland: A curated list of Wayland resources, thereā€™s a lot of options in every category.
