Sidegrade

Small, reversible mods for end-4's dots-hyprland (illogical-impulse), and the website that publishes them.

ii Settings Rework

A rework of the Quickshell "ii" settings app.

• Every option has a control. The stock app leaves 114 of its 284 options to be edited by hand in config.json.
• Search across every page. Results show where each option lives and jump to the exact row (Ctrl+F).
• Sections in the navigation rail. The selected tab lists its sections and marks the one in view.
• Tabs ordered by use, with options nothing in the shell reads moved to a Misc tab.
• Calmer rows. Sections sit on cards, units moved out of the labels, short values use compact rows.
• Update check. About shows how far behind your dotfiles are and can run end-4's updater, re-applying the mod afterwards.

It also fixes one stock bug: the "force notifications to one monitor" switch wrote to a config key the shell did not define.

Install

Download ii-settings-rework.zip from the site (or take it from web/public/downloads/), then:

unzip ii-settings-rework.zip
bash ii-settings-rework/install.sh

The installer backs up every file it replaces to ~/.local/share/ii-settings-rework/backup and refuses to run if your dots version differs from the one the mod was built against (--force overrides that).

bash ii-settings-rework/install.sh --uninstall   # put the original files back

apply.py	Regenerates the settings pages and search index from the stock files
snippets/	QML blocks apply.py inserts
installer/install.sh	The installer shipped in the zip
restore.sh	Re-applies patched/ locally after a dots update
build_site.py	Builds the zip, NOTICE and the figures the website shows
web/	The Sidegrade website (React + Vite), deployed to GitHub Pages

Working on it

python3 apply.py        # regenerate the pages into ~/.config/quickshell/ii
python3 build_site.py   # rebuild the zip and website data from patched/
cd web && npm install && npm run dev

settings.qml, the Opt*.qml components and SettingsSection.qml are edited by hand; copy them into patched/ after changing them.
