## Requirements
- Sway (or i3) — the workspace module talks to `$SWAYSOCK`/`$I3SOCK`.
- A supported window manager, detected from the environment at startup:
Sway/i3 (`$SWAYSOCK`/`$I3SOCK`), Hyprland
(`$HYPRLAND_INSTANCE_SIGNATURE`), or attwm — assumed when neither of the
other two announces itself, and talking to
`$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/attwm-$WAYLAND_DISPLAY.sock` (override with
`$ATTWM_SOCKET`).
- A running PipeWire session for the volume module.
- Nix with flakes enabled (`experimental-features = nix-command flakes`).

just `exec quickshell-bar`. The bar anchors to the top edge and reserves an
exclusive zone, so windows tile beneath it automatically.
## Use it from attwm
attwm is started by river, so launch the bar from river's init alongside it:
```sh
#!/bin/sh
# ~/.config/river/init
quickshell-bar &
exec attwm
```
Tags replace workspaces: all nine are always shown, dim when empty, underlined
when they hold windows you aren't looking at. Left click views a tag, right
click toggles it into the view, middle click sends the focused window there.
The layout symbol sits to their right — click to cycle forward, right click
back. A bar can only map at all because attwm binds `river_layer_shell_v1`.
## Configuration
Everything is plain QML — edit and the bar hot-reloads.
