Omarchy is an opinionated, preconfigured Arch-based Linux desktop setup by DHH, built around Hyprland with curated themes, tools, and dotfiles. It ships as a shell-based installer and CLI that turns a fresh Arch install into a polished, modern desktop.
Use cases
- set up a beautiful arch linux desktop quickly
- switch from mac or windows to linux
- get a preconfigured hyprland window manager setup
- opinionated linux dotfiles and themes
- install a complete developer workstation on linux
- try a tiling window manager without manual config
When to choose
- you want a ready-made, aesthetically polished Arch + Hyprland desktop
- you like DHH's tooling choices (Neovim, terminal-centric workflow)
- you're coming from macOS/Windows and want a guided Linux setup
- you want curated defaults instead of hand-rolling dotfiles
When to avoid
- you want a fully customizable, from-scratch Linux setup
- you need a non-Arch distribution or enterprise support
- you dislike opinionated defaults and want to pick every component yourself
- you need a traditional desktop environment like GNOME or KDE
