I am having trouble with Wallpaper Engine Plugin for KDE. Any insight?I've followed this guide and am still having trouble. My steam library folder seems to be in a different place than default ~/.steam/steam as opposed to the usual ~/.local/share/Steam usual. I don't think that should be an issue.
The guide I mention in the title
- Live Wallpapers working on Steam Deck in Desktop Mode

Games crash without launching a window regardless of Proton version on X11(KDE), works fine on Wayland(Gnome)
I uninstalled and reinstalled wallpaper engine, and this kde plugin restored its cache. So the apps are working briefly, but cannot display. I'm out of ideas at this point

wallpaper engine on linux?
If you use the KDE desktop environment you can use the following repo: wallpaper-engine-kde-plugin There is a generic repo but for me it never worked, but I'll leave it here anyways: linux-wallpaperengine

Widgets: which are the alternatives?
I'm trying to get the most out of my OS (Arch with X11 and Awesomewm), but I'm stuck with the widgets. I would like to create/use some utilities like an interactive calendar, small TODO list, dropdown menu, etc. but using the awesomewm widgets is too difficult and limiting. I found eww but it seems as difficult as the former widgets.

eww fails to compile
Reported and closed upstream: https://github.com/elkowar/eww/issues/712

How do I autostart Eww bar inside the hyprland.conf file?
The reason, why eww would not start, is because i compiled it myself with rustup according to the official documentation (https://elkowar.github.io/eww/) and not by the AUR. After installing it with the AUR it workes in Hyprland. So in conclustion: If you wanna use Eww on Hyprland, use the AUR method and not the method on the Docs!

Sway/workspace by Eww
Are you as mystified as me? I'll save you the google search: eww is Elkowars Wacky Widgets a standalone widget system made in Rust that allows you to implement your own, custom widgets in any window manager.
-
Eww is hard :(
Well actually there is https://elkowar.github.io/eww. I used it to make my config and also looked at other configs.
-
changing profiles
I'm guessing one could use [eww](https://elkowar.github.io/eww/) to create buttons/widgets. And the buttons could dispatch commands to any of the wallpaper/theme changing applications to actually execute the change.

Get workspaces information (to integrate with Eww)?
I'd like to get informations from xmonad on all the currently active workspaces and which one is the current workspace. Possibly I'd like to format that information into a JSON object for better integration with Eww, which I'm using as a status bar.

How to get the groups in use via the Command-API

No, as far as I know. I personally use eww and toggle a calendar when clicking on a time widget. I'm using the config in this repo
