CLUSTER HYPRLAND-MANAGER-UTILITY · 11 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2025-08-27

Hyprland monitor layout managers

This cluster consists of utilities that manage monitor layouts for the Hyprland window manager, including auto-detecting attached displays, saving/restoring configurations, and toggling display modes, with one i3-specific tool among them. The dated entry timeline is sparse and intermittent, with a modest concentration of entries in late 2025 and early 2026. Traction leaders—hypr-sticky-hdr, hyprmt, and python-hyprland-state—each have zero stars, so overall adoption is minimal.
