ML4W OS 2.14.1 Delivers Configurable Quickshell Status Bar for Hyprland

Published by

ML4W OS has released version 2.14.1 for Hyprland, featuring a fully configurable Quickshell status bar that replaces the legacy Waybar setup. This update allows users to customize their status bar layout through a single statusbar.json file and includes practical fixes such as network manager auto-start and a click-to-close feature for Rofi. The architecture has shifted significantly towards QML and Shell, with Lua now handling Hyprland configuration parsing, enhancing performance and compliance with the Wayland protocol. Users can test the environment via a live ISO or install it directly on Arch Linux, Fedora, or openSUSE Tumbleweed using a simple command, although the configuration will require more manual editing compared to traditional GUI settings
