**nwg-shell** is a GTK3-based shell for [sway ](https://github.com/swaywm/sway ) and
[Hyprland ](https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland ) Wayland compositors. The project provides a common configuration tool
2024-01-26 05:15:36 +03:00
(**nwg-shell-config**) that allows you to configure the system in a graphical UI, and a range of components such as

**nwg-panel** (system panel), **nwg-drawer** (application launcher), **nwg-dock** (system dock), **nwg-menu**
(XDG-style menu) or **nwg-bar** (customizable button bar). It also includes several native tools as
**nwg-look** (look and feel GTK settings editor), **nwg-displays** (display manager), **Azote** (wallpaper manager),
**nwg-clipman** (clipboard history manager), **nwg-icon-picker** (icon browser with textual search),
**nwg-readme-browser** (documentation viewer) and **nwg-hello** (login manager). Scripts and utilities such as
**autotiling** (script for sway to automatically switch the horizontal / vertical window split orientation) and
**gospuinfo** (a command to display system usage info) are used in the background. The shell also utilizes third party

software as **swaync** (notification center), **gtklock** / **swaylock** (screen lockers) and more. The `nwg-shell`
package itself acts as a metapackage and installer of default configuration files.
