What is it?
Omarchist is a graphical companion app for Omarchy Linux, a Hyprland-based setup. It lets you design themes, tune window and input settings, change keybinds, and chain actions together without hand-editing configuration files. It is positioned as an optional add-on rather than a replacement for Omarchy itself.
The theme designer creates a theme from scratch or from an image and writes a colors.toml file, from which Omarchy generates terminal, border, bar and editor themes. The configuration page adjusts gaps, borders, blur, keyboard, mouse and touchpad settings, storing its values in a separate Lua file that is loaded from hyprland.lua.
The keybind editor searches and changes Hyprland bindings, and the flow editor lets you combine steps such as opening apps, changing settings, prompting for input and branching with If. Flows can be triggered from keybinds, the launcher, at startup, from the command line, or by automation events such as a schedule or a charger being unplugged.
