Development

Curious how hyprpilot is put together, or want to try a change locally? Here's the short version.

Getting it running

Hyprpilot is a Rust binary with a Vue frontend, glued together by Tauri. The toolchain is pinned through mise, and task drives everything you'll typically run.

sh
git clone https://github.com/hyprpilot/hyprpilot
cd hyprpilot
mise install
task install
task dev

task dev opens the overlay with hot reload — edit a Vue component or a Rust file and the change shows up without a manual rebuild. task test runs the tests, task lint runs the linters, and task --list shows the rest.

Where things live

The Rust crate lives under src-tauri/ and produces a single binary that doubles as the daemon (hyprpilot daemon) and the CLI client (hyprpilot ctl); the two halves talk over a unix socket. The Vue UI lives under ui/. Everything else is fairly self-explanatory once you poke around.

Found a rough edge?

Open an issue, send a PR, or just drop a thought in Discussions. Small, focused changes are the easiest to review and land — but don't worry about getting it perfect; we can always iterate.
