Hyprland 0.55 Released With Lua Configuration and User-Defined Layouts
Hyprland 0.55, a Wayland-based compositor, was released today as a significant feature update. This version introduces Lua-based configuration, which now allows for ExpressionVec2 and table usage, alongside support for user-defined layouts. The update also brings new scrolling algorithms, including options for centering the current column and wrapping focus/swapcol, as well as new animation springs. Several breaking changes are part of this release, such as the removal of dwindle:pseudotile and decoration:shadow:ignore_window. Phoronix described it as "a big feature update for this Wayland-based compositor." The GitHub release also notes "a massive update brought to you by the All Hyprland Corp!"
