BOS, Bread Operating System: A polished Arch + Hyprland desktop with integrated automation

I have been working on a little project in my free time

BOS is an Arch-based Hyprland distro that comes with a full custom ecosystem designed for daily use.

What you get:

- Pre-configured Hyprland with nice defaults and animations

- My custom reactive automation layer (`bread`) + Lua modules

- breadbar (status bar + notifications)

- breadbox (launcher)

- breadpad / breadman (notes with AI classification + reminders)

- breadclip, breadsearch, breadcrumbs, breadshot, and more

- Consistent theming based off wallpaper

- btrfs snapshots + easy rollback

It's built for people who want something that feels premium and automated, but still fully customizable. I made all of it's apps to solve issues personally had with hyprland/arch after switching.

Screenshots:

Would love any feedback, especially on what feels missing or rough.
