Ferese is built in Rust on Smithay, with its own menu bar, control center
|
||||
and native Settings app.
|
||||
Ferese is a complete Wayland desktop built around personalization. Its custom
|
||||
shell, native settings, live-reloading themes and wallpapers, desktop widgets,
|
||||
fluid animations, and scrolling and tiling layouts work together as one
|
||||
cohesive experience—beautiful by default and unmistakably yours.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## One cohesive desktop
|
||||
|
||||
- **Flexible layouts:** scrolling columns, tree tiling, floating windows and a
|
||||
workspace overview.
|
||||
- **A native shell:** menu bar, control center, settings, notifications and
|
||||
desktop widgets designed to belong together.
|
||||
- **Personal by design:** themes, wallpapers, accent colors, blur, borders and
|
||||
motion that update without restarting your session.
|
||||
- **Ready for real setups:** gestures, multi-monitor support, fractional
|
||||
scaling, screenshots, background services and session locking.
|
||||
|
||||
## Make it yours
|
||||
|
||||
Use the native Settings app for everyday customization, or edit
|
||||
`~/.config/ferese/config.kdl` when you want complete control. Ferese reloads
|
||||
changes as you make them and keeps the last working configuration if an edit is
|
||||
invalid.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Features
|
||||
Choose a preset or build your own look. Window behavior, gestures, shortcuts,
|
||||
rules, displays, widgets and login items are configurable too. Start with the
|
||||
[configuration guide](docs/configuration.md) or the
|
||||
[example config](packaging/config.kdl).
|
||||
|
||||
- Scrolling columns, tree tiling and floating windows
|
||||
- Workspace overview
|
||||
- Configurable three-finger workspace and window navigation
|
||||
- Configurable animations
|
||||
- Built-in bar and control center
|
||||
- Native Settings app
|
||||
- Desktop widgets
|
||||
- Area and full-screen screenshots with Satty annotation
|
||||
- [Native themed notifications and history](docs/notifications.md)
|
||||
- Themes, blur and gradient borders
|
||||
- Multi-monitor support and fractional scaling
|
||||
- Live configuration reload
|
||||
- Background services and session locking

||||
## Install
|
||||
|
||||
## Try it
|
||||
The current installation guide covers Fedora with SDDM. After installing the
|
||||
[prerequisites](docs/installation.md), run:
|
||||
|
||||
Preview Ferese inside your current Wayland desktop:
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
./scripts/install.sh
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Log out, select **Ferese** at the login screen, and sign in. The installer keeps
|
||||
your configuration and the previous release for rollback. See
|
||||
[installation and recovery](docs/installation.md) for the full setup and safety
|
||||
notes.
|
||||
|
||||
To preview Ferese inside your current Wayland desktop instead:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
cargo build --release --locked -p ferese -p ferese-shell -p ferese-settings -p feresectl

|
||||
|
||||
Requirements (Fedora package names):
|
||||
|
||||
- Rust 1.93+ and Cargo.
|
||||
- Build tools: `gcc`, `gcc-c++`, `cmake`, `make`, `pkgconf-pkg-config`.
|
||||
- Wayland and input: `wayland-devel`, `libxkbcommon-devel`, `libinput-devel`.
|
||||
- Graphics: `libdrm-devel`, `mesa-libgbm-devel`, `mesa-libEGL-devel`.
|
||||
- Session and fonts: `systemd-devel`, `libseat-devel`, `fontconfig-devel`.
|
||||
- Installation: `desktop-file-utils`, `dbus`.
|
||||
- Default terminal: `foot` (or configure another terminal).
|
||||
- Optional: `zenity` for wallpaper browsing, `swayidle` for idle actions,
|
||||
and `swaylock` or `swaylock-effects` for locking.
|
||||
- Screenshots: `grim`, `slurp`, `satty`, and `wl-clipboard`.
|
||||
|
||||
For a login-screen session alongside your existing desktop:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
./scripts/install.sh
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The installer preserves your configuration and keeps previous releases for
|
||||
rollback. Log out and select **Ferese** at the login screen. An upgrade does
|
||||
not replace the running compositor: log out and back in to activate it.
|
||||
See [installation and recovery](docs/installation.md) for prerequisites,
|
||||
session logs and rollback.
|
||||
|
||||
## Get around
|
||||
|
||||
Built-in defaults (your configuration can override them):
|
||||
|
||||
A single-display session starts with workspace 1 in a compact numbered strip.
|
||||
More workspaces are created when you use Super+1–9 or swipe forward past the last
|
||||
workspace. Click a number to switch. A filled button marks this monitor's
|
||||
active workspace; an outlined button marks one active on another monitor.
|
||||
Status controls and the clock use matching compact groups. The control center
|
||||
opens as one rounded panel with grouped controls and a Settings shortcut.
|
||||
Three-finger swipes up/down navigate workspaces on this monitor; left/right
|
||||
navigate windows. Assign swipes to any keyboard-binding action (including
|
||||
overview, move, or a launcher command) in **Settings → Shortcuts**.
|
||||
These are the built-in defaults; every shortcut and gesture can be changed.
|
||||
|
||||
| Shortcut | Action |
|
||||
| --- | --- |
|
||||
| Super + Enter | Open a terminal |
|
||||
| Super + H / J / K / L | Focus a window |
|
||||
| Super + R | Cycle column width |
|
||||
| Super + C | Center the focused column |
|
||||
| Super + F | Maximize, keeping the bar and decorations |
|
||||
| Super + Shift + F | True fullscreen |
|
||||
| Super + Tab | Open workspace and window overview |
|
||||
| Super + M | Switch scrolling / tree layout |
|
||||
| Super + Shift + S | Select a screenshot area |
|
||||
| Print Screen / Fn + PrtSc | Capture the whole screen |
|
||||
| Super + Shift + E | Log out immediately—save your work first |
|
||||
|
||||
Both screenshot shortcuts open Satty for annotation. Press Enter in Satty to
|
||||
save to `Pictures/Screenshots` and copy the edited image to the clipboard;
|
||||
Escape discards it. Escape also cancels an area selection.
|
||||
Run `ferese-screenshot --full` to capture the whole screen from a terminal.
|
||||
When focus follows the mouse is enabled, hovering changes keyboard focus without
|
||||
raising the window; clicking raises it within its layer.
|
||||
Three-finger swipes move between workspaces and windows. Open **Control Center →
|
||||
Settings → Shortcuts** to change them or assign gestures to other actions.
|
||||

||||
## Make it yours

||||
## Documentation
|
||||
|
||||
Open **Control Center → Settings**, or run `ferese-settings`. Appearance includes
|
||||
six presets: Ferese Blue, Monochrome, Gruvbox, Dracula, Ayu Light, and Monokai.
|
||||
The custom Ferese wallpaper is bundled as the default. Choose another image in
|
||||
Settings → Wallpaper, or keep your existing wallpaper configuration.
|
||||
Advanced options live in `~/.config/ferese/config.kdl` (or under
|
||||
`$XDG_CONFIG_HOME`). Changes reload automatically. The complete
|
||||
[configuration reference](docs/configuration.md) covers every supported option;
|
||||
the [example config](packaging/config.kdl) is a starting point. KDL uses compact nested sections
|
||||
and bindings such as `binding "Swipe3Up" "toggle-overview"`. See the
|
||||
[configuration guide](docs/configuration.md#kdl-syntax).
