Home is now Overview | My Home | Phone. Overview leads with quick-action tiles (focus, Do Not Disturb, health, snapshots, storage), keeps the findings card — updates fold in, the reclaim-space prompt is gone on purpose — and adds glance cards, the next calendar event, and weather. My Home groups every light by Home Assistant area: the helper gained an `areas` command (one REST template render, no websocket), and the rooms degrade to a flat list on setups without areas. The favorites editor and connection card moved intact. Phone gains a vitals strip — battery and cell signal read from KDE Connect's plugin D-Bus objects, where absence is data, not an error — beside ring, clipboard, send-a-file, and the BlueBubbles handoff. The retired home-phone id resolves to my-home forever via a new alias map in SettingsRoutes (with a hasOwnProperty guard so prototype names cannot leak into settingsPage). Storage no longer claims 0 B free — the old page read a field the disks helper never emitted. Contracts updated alongside; per the new workflow, the full suite runs once at the end of the redesign (see the test backlog note).

# Making it yours
|
|
|
|
## Settings
|
|
|
|
`Super + I`. Fourteen categories down the side, covering appearance, displays,
|
|
sound, input, network, power, accounts and the rest. A category with more than
|
|
one subject in it opens a row of tabs above the page, which is where the
|
|
narrower topics live: Printers is a tab of Network & Sharing, Dictation a tab
|
|
of Input, and About, Software Update, Storage, Snapshots and this manual are
|
|
tabs of System.
|
|
|
|
Home is the first of them, and the page `Super + I` lands on. Its Overview tab
|
|
is the one you already know; My Home lists your Home Assistant lights by room
|
|
alongside the accessories Control Center shows, and Phone holds the iPhone
|
|
handoffs — battery, ring it, send it the clipboard or a file, and Messages.
|
|
|
|
The search box at the top searches the settings themselves rather than page
|
|
names, and each result says where it will land, so if you know what you want
|
|
to change you can type it and never touch the sidebar.
|
|
|
|
## Appearance
|
|
|
|
Panama ships Tokyo Night Moon in a light and a dark variant, with eight
|
|
accent colours. Changing either repaints the shell, the terminal, GTK
|
|
applications, the lock screen and the system monitor at once.
|
|
|
|
The wallpaper is per-monitor if you want it to be.
|
|
|
|
## Applications
|
|
|
|
`panama apps` in a terminal offers the optional application categories the
|
|
installer asked about, so a machine can acquire Slack in March without having
|
|
wanted Discord in January.
|
|
|
|
`panama app` builds the handful of applications no repository carries. It is
|
|
deliberately not part of installing, because a source build is slow and
|
|
depends on an upstream that moves.
|
|
|
|
## Autostart and defaults
|
|
|
|
The Applications settings page controls which application opens which kind of
|
|
file, and what starts when you log in.
|
|
|
|
## Going further
|
|
|
|
The compositor is configured in Lua under `~/.config/hypr`, and every file
|
|
there explains what it does and why. `overrides.lua` is loaded last and is
|
|
the intended place for per-machine changes, so you can adjust anything
|
|
without editing a file the repository will update.
|
|
|
|
The shell is QML under `~/.config/quickshell`. Both directories are symlinks
|
|
into the Panama repository, so an edit is a change to your checkout and
|
|
`panama update` will offer to commit it.
