ML4W OS


Last Update: 2026-04-04 21:05 UTC

ML4W OS is an Arch Linux-based distribution featuring a heavily customised Hyprland tiling compositor. The project specialises primarily in creating advanced configuration for Hyprland, so called "dotfiles", which are available for installation on several other Arch-based distributions, as well as Fedora and openSUSE. However, the live ML4W OS ISO image is a standalone, full-featured Linux distribution with all Hyprland configuration files, applications, icons, themes and wallpapers included. It can be installed to a hard disk using a custom text-mode system installer. The project also provides extensive documentation about setting up and configuring Hyprland.

Popularity (hits per day): 12 months: 269 (52), 6 months: 152 (104), 3 months: 76 (209), 4 weeks: 33 (402), 1 week: 206 (47)

Average visitor rating: 10.0/10 from 1 review(s).

For indication about the GNOME version, please check the "nautilus" and "gnome-shell" packages. The Apache web server is listed as "httpd" and the Linux kernel is listed as "linux". The KDE desktop is represented by the "plasma-desktop" package and the Xfce desktop by the "xfdesktop" package.
  • Colour scheme: green text = latest stable version, red text = development or beta version. The function determining beta versions is not 100% reliable due to a wide variety of versioning schemes.

 I have been using ML4W across several machines for several years. One being a full on media production workstation with an audio production focus. Started with the dotfiles before it was branded as an OS. They are great! All the modularity of Arch but with a gorgeous looking ML4W UI to start, right from the rip. The visual UI has improved a lot in recent updates, and the new quickshell widgets are performant and look great! I learned so much about how Arch works under the hood from tinkering with these dotfiles myself.
