Getting Started [Dev Post 2]
Today, I did not do much visual progress. However, there is way more that goes on in the background.
What’s new?
- We now have a bartender.
- There is a clock now. But it’s not just any clock, this clock is MODULAR!
- A very fancy weather widget with a very (not) fancy API.
A MODULAR Clock? What does that mean?
I’m glad you asked. Unlike a traditional clock, this clock actually is separated in multiple tags. That means you can move the tags around to change the order of the clock values.
API
This Dev Post is sponsored by wttr.in! With it’s simple, no sign-up, and no data limit, wttr.in is in my top 5 API’s. With a single fetch, we achieve great things like burnin’ hot weather.
Notes:
- The clock is by definition modular, however not too accessible. This will be fixed with future updates.
- No, this Dev Post is not actually sponsored.
- You can check out the current state of modOS here.

modOS v0.0.1-alpha [Dev Post 1]
This is a base release for an early preview of the main idea for modOS.
Current “features”
- Website loads.
- Backgrounds.
- Base window infrastructure.
- Cool window hover/leave effect. :D
Notes:
Although the project is supposed to be modular, it is still in early development. So every line is hard-coded and is not modular.

The Fuzzel Based Wallpaper Selector is EVEN BETTER now!
Overview:
Fuzz-Wall now supports the mpvpaper and awww wallpaper daemons! But more importantly, a new feature has been added. Fuzz-Wall now detects whether you have the Waypaper package, and uses that over the hard-coded Fuzz-Wall wallpaper setting for more compatibility and features.
What is Fuzz-Wall?
Fuzz-Wall(more commonly fuzz-wall) is a lightweight package for the Fuzzel(more commonly fuzzel) dmenu. Once the command fuzz-wall is launched, it opens up a customized menu of Fuzzel which allows you to pick a wallpaper from a directory. It utilizes the different wallpaper daemons(e.g. hyprpaper, awww/swww, swaypaper). It makes changing wallpapers way easier!
What Changed?
- Added functions for mpvpaper and awww alongside their individual commands to get the desired outcome.
- Checking for Waypaper before launching the functions to see if it can be used instead. It does not fire functions if Waypaper is present.
- Now marked swww as retired due to the project being moved to awww. However, it is not removed for anyone that prefers the older package.
Notes
- I am not the owner of the original repository of fuzz-wall.
- The pull request has not been accepted as of June 16th, 2026. You may refer to my fork for the features.
- If you would like more support or features, feel free to comment it down!
