Customizing Waybar

Waybar's appearance is controlled by config/theme.conf and processed through the template in config/waybar/style.css.template.

Modifying Modules

If you want to add or remove modules from the bar: 1. Edit config/waybar/config.jsonc.template. 2. Add or remove module names from the "modules-left", "modules-center", or "modules-right" arrays. 3. Re-run bash install.sh.

Reloading Waybar

You can reload Waybar without a full system reboot by killing the process:
