Tired of fiddling with Hyprland configs?

Monitor Maestro lets you switch between monitor layouts in a snap!

This Rust-powered TUI app lets you define layouts in a simple TOML or JSON file and switch between them with a few keystrokes.

Effortless Workflow:

• Define layouts in TOML or JSON.
• Simple TUI for easy selection.
• Switch layouts instantly.

The TUI runs on a terminal, so it's up to you to add a bind in you Hyprland configs
If you want an example, take a look at my Hyprlad dotfiles and search for monitor_maestro

The program has 3 execution options:

• tui <MODE>: start the TUI, either in:
  • list: list workspaces from config (specify with -p / --path) file and select one
  • interactive: draw current monitors with rectangles (needs a larger terminal window)
• workspace <NAME>: no tui, only run the commands to start the specified workspace
• state: get the current workspace from the file /tmp/monitor_maestro_state.txt, auto-handled

Tui in mode:
list:
- j - k: go down - up the list
- q - ESC: exit
- Enter: select monitor layout

interactive:
- h - l: go left - right the monitor rectangles
- q - ESC: exit
- Enter: WIP

Clone the repo, then build with cargo

cargo build --release

and copy the executable monitor_maestro wherever you choose.

An example workspaces configuration toml file is provided
Also json file.
A monitor can either be:

• Enabled, and requires the fields:

  • dimensions
  • refresh rate
  • position
  • scaling

• Disabled

• Dynamic TUI showing rectangles as current monitor layout, in a pseudo realistic way
• Toml configuration
• TUI for interactive monitor layout creation and json output
