About the project

Hyprland is an independent, dynamic tiling Wayland compositor written in C++ with a focus on visual effects and customization. It is not based on wlroots and offers plugins, IPC, and multiple layout modes.

Useful for
  • Replace an existing Wayland compositor with a tiling setup that supports animations and blur
  • Configure per-workspace layouts and window rules via the config file
  • Write a plugin to add custom window management behavior

2.2 Steady Magnitude out of 10 — how fast interest is growing, not a quality score.

Star growth looks organic. Data as of October 30, 2026, 12:29 UTC.

The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.

Stars per day

03060August 2, 2026October 30, 2026

Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.

Why it’s trending

  • Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-30 (UTC), 10:49–12:23: 39049 → 39054 stars (+5). This is the change over that interval.
  • Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +15 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
  • Over the last two days the pace is 1.7× that of the previous week and a half.
  • GitHub Trending C++ today: #3, +29 stars.

Measured growth: the last 7 completed days

New stars over 7 days: 128. +32% versus the preceding 7 days.

Star trust

Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.

These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
