From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

End-rs : A notification daemon for WMs using eww for their widgets (lemm.ee)

Hello. I recently created a notification daemon which uses eww widgets for its front-end display. So if you are already using eww, give it a go.

I know this is a very niche use case, but if a single person finds it useful, I will be glad.

Currently using gbar in Hyprland as I got a bit overwhelmed trying to learn too many things at once (gbar is very limited but simple to configure). I've always been thinking of moving over to a more flexible option like eww though, and this might be a good reason to do so (keeping things consistent).

Ohh eww is awesome. And don't try to create everything from scratch, look up other people's dot files, you will understand best practices.

If you want to take a peek .. Here are my dotfiles
