piri

High-performance plugin system for the Niri Wayland compositor: scratchpads, window rules, and more.

Pluginfreeglobal

Piri is a free, open-source, Rust-based extension tool for the Niri Wayland compositor, adding scratchpad windows, workspace layout rules, regex-based window placement, singleton window enforcement, and other window-management plugins over Niri's IPC protocol. Configuration hot-reloads from one TOML file with no daemon restart needed. It's aimed at Linux desktop users running Niri who want the kind of plugin-driven window-management extensions Pyprland provides for Hyprland.
