Dunst

Dunst is a lightweight notification daemon for X11 and Wayland. This folder contains the config that defines where and how notifications appear and how they look.

What the config does

• Global behaviour
  • Notifications on monitor 1, top-right, with offset; follow mouse.
  • Size: width 350px, padding, rounded corners (10px), progress bar with min/max width and corner radius.
  • Font: Maple Mono 10; bold title (12pt); markup enabled; stacking of duplicates with history (20), sticky history.
  • Mouse: left/middle = action or close, right = close all.
• Urgency
  • Low/normal: dark background (#070C0D), cyan text (#8dddea), 5s timeout.
  • Critical: same style with accent frame, 1000s timeout.
• Hints
  • [volume] and [backlight] use custom app names and highlight colours for volume/backlight notifications.
• Experimental
  • Per-monitor DPI for sharper text on mixed-DPI setups.

How to use it

1. Ensure Dunst is installed (dunst).
2. Symlink or copy this folder to ~/.config/dunst/ (or set XDG_CONFIG_HOME accordingly).
3. Icons are expected under ~/.local/share/icons/dunst/; create or symlink if you use icons.
4. Start Dunst (e.g. dunst &). On Hyprland/Sway it’s often started in the compositor’s autostart (e.g. exec-once = dunst).
