"I" "made" hypr-lens, a standalone, portable toolkit that provides various screenshot/recording utilities

I was using end-4’s dots but recently switched to Hyprland DE. I really liked the screenshot, OCR, and recording tools from his dotfiles. They’re pretty and just work nicely. So I extracted and refactored them into a standalone toolkit.

hypr-lens provides region capture, OCR, Google Lens search, screen recording (with and without sound), and a color picker for Hyprland.

I fixed some minor bugs along the way. Tested and should “just work” on Arch (only distro supported).

Please report any bugs on GitHub. PRs are welcome!
