The sidebar was a flat scan of thirty-one rows; now it reads like a settings app. Multi-subject categories (Input, Network & Sharing, Applications, Users & Accounts, Privacy & Security, System) carry an Appearance-style tab strip above the page, drawn by the shell so the leaf pages themselves are untouched. The taxonomy lives in one new file, services/SettingsRoutes.qml; the sidebar, the strip, route validation, search breadcrumbs, and both generators derive from it. ShellState.settingsPage still holds leaf ids, so every deep link, IPC call, and search result keeps working — and now lands on the exact tab. Dictation moves out of Sound onto its own page under Input, with a handoff back to Sound for the microphone. The strip scrolls when System's nine tabs outgrow a tiled window. All 161 contracts pass.

Windows and workspaces
How the split is chosen
A new window splits the space of the window that had focus. Whether it splits beside or below depends on which way that space is longer, which usually matches what you were about to do anyway.
When it does not, Super + Ctrl + G flips the split of the focused window,
and Super + Ctrl + Z and Super + Ctrl + V decide the direction the next
window will take before you open it.
Resizing
Super + Shift plus Y, O, B, M adjusts width; I, U, N and
comma adjust height. These are inverted from what their letters suggest, on
purpose, and the reason is written in config/dot/hypr/keybinds.lua next to
the binds.
For anything finer, hold Super and drag with the right mouse button.
Fullscreen and floating
Super + U makes the focused window fullscreen. Super + Ctrl + C lifts it
out of the layout to float, and Super + Ctrl + Shift + C pins it so it
follows you between workspaces. A floating window can be moved by holding
Super and dragging with the left button.
Workspaces
Ten of them, on Alt + 1 through Alt + 0. Alt + H and Alt + L step
between neighbours, and Alt + Shift plus a number sends the current window
somewhere without following it.
On a machine with more than one display, workspaces belong to whichever screen has focus. If you would rather pin workspaces one through ten to your main display and give the second screen its own, that is a switch on the Desktop & Dock settings page.
Projects
A project is the set of windows you open together: which applications, which workspace each was on, and for a terminal, which directory it was in.
Arrange things the way you want them, then run Save Layout as Project from the launcher. Open Project lays it out again on free workspaces, so it never lands on top of what you are already doing. An application that refuses to open twice is moved into place rather than launched again.
