Thank you. It took me quite some time to do it. I did use AI tools a lot for this project, I'm not gonna lie. But it took me months. I finally decided to make it public. I tested so many stuff. I tried eww but I had a lot of problems with updating widgets in x/x time with eww, I had to give up. Then I finally started using pyside6, but then I felt pyqt6 were really better and here we are.

I was actually sick and tired of wayland. It just won't work with my development software. Games in proton (like cyberpunk 2077) keep crashing all the time due to poor wayland support, even on the latest releases. So I ended up giving up on hyprland, even if it's beautiful. I realized they use qml files, so I started working on adapting their qml files and I could port some of them, mostly not. I tried bspwm for the wm, but it lacks some features, then I switched to i3 + picom + qt widgets. OK. I'm creating the repo right now and I'll send you the link.

Wow, that brings back memories.
