Debian / Ubuntu

Install Veila from the prebuilt Debian package on Debian and Ubuntu based systems

Download the latest kwybars_<version>-1_amd64.deb file from the GitHub releases, then install it with apt:

wget -O /tmp/kwybars_0.2.0-1_amd64.deb github.com/naurissteins/Kwybars/releases/download/0.2.0/kwybars_0.2.0-1_amd64.deb

Install package:

sudo apt install /tmp/kwybars_0.2.0-1_amd64.deb

First Launch

Start the daemon:

kwybars-daemon

For daily use, start kwybars-daemon from your compositor config. For Hyprland:

exec-once = kwybars-daemon

If you prefer systemd user services:

systemctl --user enable --now kwybars-daemon.service

That is enough for the normal setup. Play some audio, and the visualizer should appear automatically.

If you want a ready-made look before reading the full configuration reference, start with the preset configs.
