What is a tiling window manager like Hyprland?

It auto-arranges windows into non-overlapping grids, keyboard-navigated for max efficiency—no mouse dragging needed.

How do I install Hyprland on Linux?

Grab from AUR (Arch: yay -S hyprland), Fedora COPR, or build from GitHub. Pair with waybar, kitty—then edit hyprland.conf.

Does Hyprland work on Wayland and replace GNOME?

Pure Wayland, yes—lightning fast. Won't replace GNOME for casuals, but crushes it for power users.
