I remember the days when installing Arch Linux felt like the ultimate challenge for my Linux skills. It was a journey where I learned something new with every attempt. Today, that is no longer the case; Arch has become much more accessible thanks to the archinstall helper.
Seeking a new challenge, I decided to build my own Hyprland ecosystem, which I’ve named HyprLTM. As the first major piece of this setup, I developed HyprLTM-Net: a sleek, open source network management graphical user interface (GUI).
Powered by Rofi and NetworkManager (nmcli), it is now published on GitHub under the GNU GPL v3.0 license.
GitHub: https://github.com/hyprltm/hyprltm-net
Features
Wi-Fi Management: Scan for nearby networks, Connect to new or hidden SSIDs, Manage saved connections & passwords.
Wired Profiles: Switch between Ethernet configurations, View connection status.
VPN Support: WireGuard & OpenVPN integration, Import .conf or .ovpn files directly.
Advanced Controls: Airplane Mode toggle, QR Code Sharing for Wi-Fi, Hotspot creation.
Smart Installation: Distro Detection: Auto-installs dependencies (Arch, Fedora, openSUSE, NixOS), Desktop Entry: Creates launcher menu entry & icon.
HyprLTM-Net is more than just a tool for me. It’s a challenge, a learning experience, a motivation, and a growing piece of my evolving HyprLTM setup. I’ve spent days polishing the logic and fixing bugs, but as with any project, there is always room for improvement. Your feedback, suggestions, and contributions are more than welcome.
