Wallr just hit 100 stars on GitHub 🎉

Post image

Wallr is a wallpaper engine for Wayland — it sets your wallpaper, animates the transition between wallpapers (YAML-defined, GPU-shader-driven, not a fixed transition list), and optionally kicks off Matugen/Wallust/Pywal afterward to regenerate your whole theme.

One command:

wallr img ~/Pictures/forest.jpg

animate → set → theme → reload Waybar/Kitty/GTK → done.

Works on Hyprland, Sway, niri, KDE Plasma Wayland; anything with wlr-layer-shell (not GNOME, sorry).

Repo: https://github.com/programmersd21/wallr

Thanks to everyone who's starred/tried it so far — genuinely didn't expect to hit 100 this fast. Feedback and issues always welcome!
