If someone has a script to set up HyprLand or Sway with all the necessary components and dotfiles I’m all ears because I just don’t have the patience to experiment myself so I’m still on GNOME.
JaKooLit has a hyprland script for most distros. If you want to use sway just install from your package manager not much else you need to do. If you wanna use proprietary nvidia drivers with sway you have to install sway-nvidia as well
Cosmic is really great if you want tiling similar to Hyprland or Sway without so much work. I used i3 then Hyprland for years, but have now been using Cosmic for months. Its the only DE that correctly does a tiling workflow imo, even considering extensions.
The problems with preconfigured configs is that they often aren’t very dynamic, as in they don’t adapt well to other PCs. Many of them will use stuff like CSS for widgets and bars that have stuff like specific pixel sizes, meaning you’ll often gave to make changes.
Hyprland has some premade configurations on their wiki if you’d like to try them. I’ve never tried one, if you do, let me know how it goes!
Another thing to remember is a lot of the stuff you take for granted in a DE don’t exist in a WM. Things like autostarts, envvars, background services, etc don’t work the same. Hyprland devs created UWSM which will help with all of this.
