tuigreet is a terminal-based graphical console greeter for greetd, providing a login interface with session management, user selection, and power controls. It is a maintained fork of the original tuigreet with a cleaner codebase, themeable UI, background animations, and multi-language support.
Use cases
- replace a display manager with a lightweight greetd greeter
- show a terminal login prompt on a Wayland or Xorg Linux system
- remember the last logged-in username and session between reboots
- customize the login screen with greetings, issue file, and clock
- launch desktop sessions from .desktop files at login
- add power controls like shutdown and reboot to the login screen
When to choose
- you use greetd and want a minimal, terminal-based greeter
- you run a Wayland or Xorg Linux setup without a full display manager
- you want session persistence and user menus without heavy dependencies
- you prefer a themeable, customizable login prompt
When to avoid
- you need a full graphical display manager with mouse-driven login
- you don't use greetd as your session manager
- you need remote or network authentication beyond PAM
