Ambxst is a highly customizable desktop shell for Wayland compositors like Hyprland, Niri, and MangoWC, built on Quickshell with QML and a native Go backend. It provides an integrated suite of desktop components including an app launcher, notification system, media controls, system monitor, and theming engine.
Use cases
- customize my hyprland desktop environment
- wayland shell with app launcher and notifications
- rice my linux desktop with themes
- manage wallpaper, clipboard, and notes on wayland
- quickshell-based desktop shell
- system monitor and media control overlay for hyprland
- switch from hyprland to niri with same shell
When to choose
- you use Hyprland, Niri, or MangoWC on Arch, Fedora, or NixOS and want a polished, deeply customizable shell
- you want an all-in-one launcher, notification, media, and system-monitor suite without assembling separate tools
- you want theming and presets that don't overwrite your existing compositor config
When to avoid
- you are on X11 or a non-Wayland setup
- you use a compositor other than Hyprland, Niri, or MangoWC
- you prefer a minimal setup with individually chosen components rather than an integrated shell
