Dux Shell
A complete Wayland desktop environment framework built on QuickShell, providing an integrated panel, launcher, screenshot tool, network management, and notification center as built-in components. It runs across multiple Wayland compositors rather than being tied to a single one, functioning as a shell layer atop the compositor. The framework is intended to deliver a full desktop experience while remaining compatible with different compositors.
Timeline (last 90 days)
Dux Shell (formerly Dank Material Shell) is a complete desktop environment framework built on QuickShell, covering components such as the panel, launcher, screenshots, network management, wallpaper settings, and notification center.
Dux Shell supports multiple Wayland compositors including Niri, Hyprland, Mango, Sway, LabWC, Scroll, and Miracle.
Dux Shell automatically creates and destroys workspaces based on the number of windows: when a new window is opened, the next empty workspace automatically appears, and after closing, surplus workspaces automatically disappear.
Dux Shell recently added a digital wellbeing feature that lets you view weekly screen time and the most frequently used applications.
After the user switched from a traditional tiling manager (Qtile) to the combination of Niri plus Dux Shell, the configuration files were finalized about two weeks after the switch, and have basically not been modified since then for nearly a year.
