Serpantinum is a desktop shell for Wayland compositors, built in QML, evolving from the author's popular dotfiles configuration. It provides a themed desktop UI layer (panels, widgets, launcher) for Wayland-based Linux setups.

Use cases

  • give my wayland compositor a full desktop shell
  • rice my linux desktop with a polished qml shell
  • replace waybar and rofi with an integrated shell
  • get a beautiful hyprland desktop setup
  • turn my dotfiles into a complete wayland desktop environment

When to choose

  • you use a Wayland compositor like Hyprland on Arch and want a cohesive, aesthetic shell
  • you want a ready-made riced desktop without assembling panels and launchers yourself

When to avoid

  • you run NixOS, which is explicitly unsupported until flakes are introduced
  • you need a stable, long-term-supported desktop environment rather than a rapidly evolving personal project
  • you dislike installer telemetry or want a fully declarative setup
