# LXQt Desktop Environment with Niri Window Manager
#
# This module provides LXQt desktop environment components running with
# Niri as the Wayland compositor instead of the default window manager.
#
# Features:
# - LXQt panel, settings, file manager, and utilities
# - Niri as the tiling Wayland compositor
# - Proper Qt theming with LXQt themes and Kvantum
# - XDG portals for screen sharing and file dialogs
# - Audio, network, and power management integration
#
# Usage:
# Add this to your host configuration:
#   imports = lib.flatten [
#     # ... other imports ...
#     "hosts/common/optional/lxqt-niri.nix"
#     "hosts/common/optional/gdm.nix"  # or sddm.nix for display manager
#   ];
#
# The session will appear as "LXQt (Niri)" in the session list.
