Previews

🌻 Latte

🪴 Frappé

🌺 Macchiato

🌿 Mocha

Usage

1. Ensure you have the dependencies.
2. Get your preferred theme from the releases page.
3. Unzip the contents of the release into /usr/share/sddm/themes/
4. Edit the file in /etc/sddm.conf/ and change the theme in there to catppuccin-<flavour>. For example, catppuccin-mocha.

• If you don't have this file make one with .conf extension and make sure it has these two lines within the config:

[Theme]
Current=catppuccin-flavour

This theme is available in nixpkgs catppuccin-sddm.

Add the package to systemPackages, you can customize the theme by overriding the attributes:

environment.systemPackages = [(
  pkgs.catppuccin-sddm.override {
    flavor = "mocha";
    font  = "Noto Sans";
    fontSize = "9";
    background = "${./wallpaper.png}";
    loginBackground = true;
  }
)];

Then set it as the theme in the sddm configuration, change the suffix to the flavor you set in the package override:

displayManager.sddm = {
  enable = true;
  theme = "catppuccin-mocha";
  package = pkgs.kdePackages.sddm;
};
