Flip between the dwindle and master layouts with one bind. Neither a
dispatcher nor a keyword toggles the layout on its own, so a small pinned
script reads general:layout and sets the other through hyprctl keyword.
Ghostty's GTK4 window construction made every launch sluggish on neogaia's
integrated graphics (~440 ms to map a window), which a head-to-head
comparison against Alacritty confirmed. Alacritty's lightweight OpenGL
renderer opens fast on the iGPU, so it becomes the terminal on Super+Return.
The choice stays reversible per host, so a capable host such as zeus could
adopt Ghostty later.
Introduce the modules/desktop/ group behind a single modules.desktop.enable
aggregator that hand-lists and turns on each piece at default priority, so a
host enables the whole desktop with one flag yet can override any single piece.
The Hyprland compositor lives in a subdirectory of the group, sourced from
nixpkgs with the program integration owning the session, portals, and polkit
and home-manager writing the config against that one package. greetd with the
tuigreet greeter provides a mouse-free text login that launches the session
through uwsm, and Ghostty is the terminal on Super+Return.
Port the operator's KDE/i3 bindings expressed entirely in hjkl and letters,
tune input (US layout, Caps->Escape, snappy repeat, touchpad taps and natural
scroll, flat mouse accel), and set a subtle feel with blur left as a host knob.
Enable the desktop on neogaia.
Add the hyprland-desktop spec, ADR 0003 recording the compositor choice
over Sway/KDE/niri, and the task breakdown (0021-0030) that decomposes
the desktop into granular grouped modules. Record the corrected host GPU
facts (zeus is AMD, raichu the sole Nvidia machine) in CLAUDE.md.
