HypeDE Wiki Русский

Getting started

HypeDE is a Chrome OS–style desktop that runs on top of an unmodified GNOME Shell. It installs as a separate session: your regular GNOME stays as it was, and HypeDE keeps its own settings.

Install

Arch Linux, CachyOS and other Arch-based systems with GNOME Shell 48–50:

git clone https://github.com/hypede/hypede
cd hypede/packaging
makepkg -si

KDE modules for Settings are optional. Without one, its row in Settings names the package to install:

sudo pacman -S plasma-nm bluedevil plasma-pa print-manager plasma-workspace \
               plasma-desktop kde-cli-tools flatpak-kcm kinfocenter power-profiles-daemon

The AI assistant needs webkitgtk-6.0. Other distributions: make && sudo make install, see the README for dependencies.

First sign-in

  1. Log out and pick HypeDE on the login screen (GDM, SDDM, greetd and LightDM all show it).
  2. HypeDE copies your keyboard layouts, mouse, touchpad, accessibility and shortcut settings from GNOME.
  3. A short greeting appears; turn it off in Settings → Personalization → Animations and effects.
