Hyprland

A Wayland compositor with dynamic tiling and floating windows, per-monitor workspaces, animations and composable visual effects. Current documentation introduces Lua as a configuration interface while retaining support for existing Hyprlang configuration, and its compositor also manages input, outputs and desktop layers. A later milestone added Lua configuration while retaining the established Hyprlang path.

Background and availability

Hyprland introduced Lua as a new configuration path while continuing to support existing Hyprlang configuration, marking a major change in how users can define compositor settings. History source ↗
