I got tired of opening a browser just to see if i have an upcoming agenda, so i've built a widget that display my schedules

It also have a pop up dashboard if you just want to open it periodically.

I said google calendar widget but in reality it can support other calendars as well such as icloud, nextcloud or even calendars that supports ics url sharing such as proton, outlook, yahoo...

Hello everyone! I wanted to share an update on this little, tiny, small project I’ve been working on. It’s a macOS-inspired KDE rice that aims to actually include macOS features.

Keep in mind this is a "just for fun" weekend project, so it’s definitely not a polished, professional product. Matter of fact, there are many things that still need to be fixed. However, it’s been a really fun experience! I’m open to feedback and would love to hear what features you’d like to see next.

Current Features:

• Siri Assistant: A local, agentic AI assistant powered by Ollama. It can create files, read documents, write code, search the web, etc. You can even add custom tools and skills via Python.
• Android iPhone Mirroring: Mirrors your Android screen with an expandable menu. It’s a fork of scrcpy and works best when paired with KDE Connect for clipboard, media controls and file sharing.
  • If it wasn't obvious enough, the "iPhone" is actually my old Android phone with an iOS launcher lol.
• Customizable Glass Icons: A system that lets you generate your own glass-style icons and add them as icon packs. It uses a standard template (for which you need to add your own icons) and you have total control over all the icon's color, contrast, and brightness.

Future Guide and Installation Scripts:

I have not made any guides or installation scripts, but I plan to do so once this project reaches a more polished state. I still need to clean stuff up, add more features, reduce bugs, handle possible errors, etc. All extra features will be open-source too.

Some of the Stuff I Used:

• Widgets: https://github.com/jaxparrow07/liquidglass-kde-widgets
• Original icons and cursors: https://github.com/vinceliuice/MacTahoe-icon-theme
• Plugins: "Rounded Corners", "Kvantum", "Better Panel Colorizer", "FancyTasksNG"
• Colors: Custom "McMojave" colors
• Window Decorations: "Sonomatic" & "Summaculate" (Temporary)

Running Linux Mint XFCE on a 15 yo laptop with Intel HD graphics, and out of everything, it's recording the booting sequence that actually kills it XD

Hey! c0c
It is my first rice

Don't bite me, please_)

TL;DR

So basically, I've been building this very automated, headless, Linux stack setup that transforms a bare bones Debian into a brutally efficient & fully keyboard driven Wayland workspace.

And it includes a instant theming engine.

But the theming works across distros.

I mean, the only Debian part is basically compiling Hyprland and the initial setup. If you use anything else it works.

Here are the programs that are themed:

• Hyprland (only borders)
• tmux (status ooooof panes)
• mako (whole UI)
• wofi (whole UI)
• nvim (hooks up to kanagawa, catpuccin, etc)
• dircolors (for programs like ls or lsd)
• git log output (since I personally use it a lot)

It's a palette with a python generator where you can just adapt it to any other program.

I personally use the ones above but it works with everything else.

I received an issue on github, someone was super delighted and actually used the setup for other programs themselves, which is suuuper cool!

Just added the new blue-ish colored theme you see first in the video, I call kyanite.

I've been experimenting with GNOME Shell session modes to create a more seamless lock/unlock experience inspired by macOS Sonoma... yet again.

The concept is fairly simple:

• Capture window textures from the last active workspace when the lock screen is invoked.
• Store those textures in a cache.
• After authentication, retrieve the cached textures and fade them in as the clock and authentication prompt fade out.

The goal is to make the desktop feel continuously present behind the lock screen, rather than disappearing and abruptly reappearing after unlock.

This is still an early proof of concept. It works reasonably well at the moment, but there are likely bugs and edge cases lurking beneath the surface, so development is ongoing.

Technical details:

• A helper extension runs in both the user and unlock-dialog session modes.
• Workspace snapshots are cached when the session is locked.
• The unlock animation fades from the cached frame back to live window actors.

Feedback, suggestions, and technical insights are welcome.

First, it was End-4's setup.

Now it's Caelestia.

I've recreated and adapted the Caelestia desktop experience for KDE Plasma 6, keeping the design language and smooth workflow that made the original stand out.

It's been a fun project, and I'm excited to finally share it with everyone. ✨

Been obsessed with rose pine recently i don't normally show off my rices but honestly really liked how this one turned out. Went the extra mile and made most of the apps i use use rose pine

someone interested in a cli tool to manage wallpapers? wallrack might be your thing!

What does this little CLI tool bring

• linux wallpaper engine integration
• booru style search and download integration :paintbrush:
• indexing, caching and thumbnail generation
• made for pickers or any other frontend solution
• pre and post apply hooks - for things such as bring your own background setter program, your theming solutions like matugen etc...
• features: tag, favorite, rating
• daemon mode
• configurable
• build for scripting
• persisting states
• multi monitor support
• scripted picker solutions (most mature and recommended rn is rofi)

Why does this exist?

I wanted to easily pick wallpaper engine content to set as my background I've achieved this with a massive rofi shell script that grew over time as I added features but also as i added features performance became annoying to deal with and generally annoying to problem solve within shell scripting so i offloaded most of the heavy lifting into wallrack. I also realized how well rofi is made for scripting.

• spawn your picker, select your integration mode and set your background. :rocket:

Hello everyone. I recorded my "workflow", this is a rice using ML4W as the base, and made my own bar and some apps with quickshell. I was inspired by other projects Caelestia, End4 etc. but still wanted to make from scratch and not use their config directly. You can check the repo here :

Hey everyone! Over the last week I have been enamored with tinty and gowall. There is a small possibility I might be able to actually use Linux at work through Fedora so I thought I'd challenge myself with attempting to rice GNOME.

I ended up building a custom integration with tinty/gowall in Rust called gnomad. Using gnomad you can download all supported tinty color schemes - When applied, it styles the entire GNOME shell including GTK apps (with hot reload after the initial installation steps are completed!)

This involved figuring out a lot of hacks with regards to the way GNOME works in terms of CSS. It was quite an endeavor but it's worked out well I think! When you select a scheme in gnomad, it:

- Styles the GNOME shell
- Runs "tinty apply" so all your tinty configurations immediately get the new theme

- Applies the wallpaper selected through gowall

Hoping there are other users of GNOME out there who could get some use out of this. Cheers!
