## What it is
SilentSDDM is a highly customizable theme for the SDDM display manager on Linux, built with QML and Qt6. It ships multiple preset configurations (Catppuccin, Nord, Everforest, and more) with animated backgrounds and an optional virtual keyboard.

## Use cases
- customize my sddm login screen
- modern animated login screen theme for linux
- catppuccin themed sddm theme
- install a pretty display manager theme on arch
- sddm theme with virtual keyboard support
- nixos flake for sddm theme

## When to choose
- you use SDDM >= 0.21 with Qt6 and want a polished, themeable login screen
- you want ready-made presets for popular color schemes like Catppuccin or Nord
- you're on Arch, Gentoo, or NixOS and want package/flake installation

## When to avoid
- you use a display manager other than SDDM (GDM, LightDM, Ly)
- your distro ships an older SDDM or Qt5-only stack
- you need a lightweight login screen without Qt6 dependencies
