|

This project is an attempt to create a GTK3-based GUI for [sway](https://github.com/swaywm/sway) Wayland compositor. It's aimed at those, who do not believe
|
||||
that the rationale of the modern computer is to use less than 200 MiB RAM and 0.5% CPU. Those who don't want to stare solely at the terminal's black window.
|
||||
The programs included in the project are to give you the freedom of choice what your desktop looks like.

You may use all the nwg-shell components as a DIY kit with elements to choose from. BTW, if you don't use Arch (or a derivative), you have no other choice, at least for now. If you decide to use Arch*, however, you'll have a GUI to configure all the components in one place - together with some third-party applications. This involves significant interference with the basic sway config, using included files, that are modified on the fly from the GUI level.

The panel is the central point of the project. At the moment it contains 12 modules: Clock, Controls, CustomButton,
|
||||
Executor, MenuStart, OpenWeather, Playerctl, Scratchpad, SwayNC (integrates Eric Reider's
|
||||
[SwayNotificationCenter](https://github.com/ErikReider/SwayNotificationCenter)), SwayTaskbar, SwayWorkspaces and Tray.
|
||||
The Executor module supports tint2-like executors, that allow to add user-defined features. The MenuStart module adds
|
||||
support for the nwg-menu plugin (see below).

||||

The `nwg-drawer` command displays the application grid. The search entry allows to look for installed applications, and for files
|
||||
in XDG user directories. The grid view may also be filtered by categories. You may pin applications by right-clicking
|
||||
them. Pinned items will appear above the grid. Right-click a pinned item to unpin it.

The MenuStart plugin to nwg-panel, written in Go. It displays the system menu with simplified [freedesktop main categories](https://specifications.freedesktop.org/menu-spec/latest/apa.html). It also provides the search entry,
|
||||
to look for installed application on the basis of .desktop files, and for files in XDG user directories.
|
||||
|
||||
You may pin-up applications above the categories list. In the bottom-right corner of the window you'll also see a set of buttons: lock screen, logout,
|
||||
restart and shutdown.

|

nwg-bar is a golang replacement to the `nwgbar` command (a part of [nwg-launchers](https://github.com/nwg-piotr/nwg-launchers)), with some improvements.
|
||||
Aimed at sway, works with wlroots-based compositors only. The `nwg-bar` command creates a button bar on the basis of a JSON template placed in the
|
||||
`~/.config/nwg-bar` folder. By default the command displays a horizontal bar in the center of the screen. Use command line arguments to change the placement.

[![Packaging status](https://repology.org/badge/vertical-allrepos/azote.svg)](https://repology.org/project/azote/versions)
|
||||
|
||||
Azote is a picture browser and background setter, as the frontend to the swaybg (sway/Wayland) and feh (X windows) commands. The user interface is being
|
||||
developed with multi-headed setups in mind. Azote also includes several colour management tools.

[![Packaging status](https://repology.org/badge/vertical-allrepos/nwg-displays.svg)](https://repology.org/project/nwg-displays/versions)
|
||||
|
||||
Output management utility inspired by wdisplays and wlay. The program provides an intuitive GUI to manage multiple
|
||||
displays, apply settings, save outputs configuration and workspace -> output assignments to text files, which you
|
||||
then include in the sway config file.
|
||||

[![Packaging status](https://repology.org/badge/vertical-allrepos/nwg-look.svg)](https://repology.org/project/nwg-look/versions)
|
||||
|
||||
Nwg-look is a GTK3 settings editor, designed to work properly in wlroots-based Wayland environment.
|
||||
The look and feel is strongly influenced by [LXAppearance](https://wiki.lxde.org/en/LXAppearance),
|
||||
but nwg-look is intended to free the user from a few inconveniences:
|
||||
|
||||
- It works natively on Wayland. You no longer need Xwayland, nor strange env variables for it to run.
|
||||
- It applies gsettings directly, with no need to use
|
||||
[workarounds](https://github.com/swaywm/sway/wiki/GTK-3-settings-on-Wayland). You don't need to set
|
||||
gsettings in the sway config file. You don't need the `import-gsettings` script any longer.
|
||||

[![Packaging status](https://repology.org/badge/vertical-allrepos/nwg-wrapper.svg)](https://repology.org/project/nwg-wrapper/versions)
|
||||
|
||||
This program is a GTK3-based wrapper to display a script output, or a text file content on the desktop in sway or
|
||||
other wlroots-based compositors. It uses the [gtk-layer-shell](https://github.com/wmww/gtk-layer-shell) library
|
||||
to place the window on the bottom layer. As well the script output, at the text file may be formatted with
|
||||
[Pango Markup](https://developer.gnome.org/pygtk/stable/pango-markup-language.html). The window appearance is defined
|
||||
with css styling.
|
||||

[![Packaging status](https://repology.org/badge/vertical-allrepos/gopsuinfo.svg)](https://repology.org/project/gopsuinfo/versions)
|
||||
|
||||
This command, based on the [gopsutil](https://github.com/shirou/gopsutil) Go module, produces text output to display system usage info in nwg-panel executors.
|
||||
- [latest release](https://github.com/nwg-piotr/gopsuinfo/releases/latest)
|
||||
|
||||
### [autotiling](https://github.com/nwg-piotr/autotiling) (python)

[![Packaging status](https://repology.org/badge/vertical-allrepos/autotiling.svg)](https://repology.org/project/autotiling/versions)
|
||||
|
||||
This script uses the [i3ipc-python library](https://github.com/altdesktop/i3ipc-python) to switch the layout splith/splitv depending on the currently focused
|
||||
window dimensions. It works on both sway and i3 window managers. You may love it or hate it, but it's my must have.
