Welcome to the UnixNotis wiki.

UnixNotis is a Wayland-first notification stack with a D-Bus daemon, control-center panel, popup renderer, CLI, preset tooling, and installer-managed user service.

This wiki tracks the dev baseline: configuration schema 5, GTK 4.18 or newer, generation-safe notification controls, live five-layer CSS, validated avatars and notification images, timed DND, and systemd, dinit, runit, and s6 user-service backends.

This wiki is written as user documentation. It focuses on how to install, configure, style, troubleshoot, and share a UnixNotis setup.
