How to Install​

Installing DankMaterialShell (DMS)​

For complete DMS installation instructions including repository setup, see the DankMaterialShell Installation Guide.

Installing Standalone Packages​

All packages in the DankLinux repository can be installed independently. First, add the DankLinux repository for your distribution, then install the packages you need.

Debian​

Stable quickshell should come from Debian (trixie-backports on Debian 13; main on testing/sid). The DankLinux OBS quickshell package for Debian is deprecated and will be removed in the future — migrate with sudo apt remove quickshell then install the Debian package below. DankLinux OBS remains for niri, quickshell-git, and other companions.

Select your release, then choose stable or development packages.

# Native quickshell from Debian backports
echo "deb http://deb.debian.org/debian trixie-backports main" | \
  sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/trixie-backports.list
sudo apt update
sudo apt install -t trixie-backports quickshell
# DankLinux OBS for niri and other companions
curl -fsSL https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:AvengeMedia:danklinux/Debian_13/Release.key | \
  sudo gpg --dearmor -o /etc/apt/keyrings/danklinux.gpg
echo "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/danklinux.gpg] https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/AvengeMedia:/danklinux/Debian_13/ /" | \
  sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/danklinux.list
sudo apt update
sudo apt install niri

Ubuntu​

Step 1: Add the DankLinux PPA​

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:avengemedia/danklinux
sudo apt update

Step 2: Install packages​

sudo apt install quickshell niri

Void Linux​

sudo sed -i 's|https://avengemedia.github.io/DankLinux/current|https://void.danklinux.com/danklinux/current|' /etc/xbps.d/danklinux.conf

Add the DankLinux XBPS repository, synchronize it, and install whichever standalone packages you need:

echo "repository=https://void.danklinux.com/danklinux/current" | sudo tee /etc/xbps.d/danklinux.conf
sudo xbps-install -S
sudo xbps-install -S dgop danksearch dankcalendar

The package names are dgop, danksearch, and dankcalendar; they install the dgop, dsearch, and dcal commands respectively. To install DMS itself, also configure the separate repository in the Void Linux DMS installation guide.

OpenSUSE​

Select your distribution, then choose stable or development packages.

sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:AvengeMedia:danklinux/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/home:AvengeMedia:danklinux.repo
sudo zypper refresh
sudo zypper install quickshell niri

Fedora & CentOS​

The COPR repositories provide packages for Fedora 41/42/43 rawhide and CentOS 10.

sudo dnf copr enable avengemedia/danklinux
sudo dnf install quickshell niri

Niri Scrollable-Tiling Wayland Compositor​

Niri packages are available in both stable and development variants. Supported on distributions where niri is not available in the official repositories.

xWayland-Satellite is automatically installed as a dependency when installing niri or niri-git, providing XWayland integration out of the box.
