## Quick start
Use these commands to install niri with [DankMaterialShell](https://github.com/AvengeMedia/DankMaterialShell) for a fairly out-of-the-box experience.
Fedora:
```
sudo dnf copr enable avengemedia/dms
sudo dnf install niri dms
systemctl --user add-wants niri.service dms
```
Arch Linux (via [paru](https://github.com/morganamilo/paru)):
```
sudo pacman -Syu niri xwayland-satellite xdg-desktop-portal-gnome xdg-desktop-portal-gtk
paru -S dms-shell-bin
systemctl --user add-wants niri.service dms
```
After running these commands, log out, choose Niri in your display manager, and log back in.
Or, if not using a display manager, run `niri-session` on a TTY.
## Slower and more considered start
The easiest way to get niri is to install one of the distribution packages. The easiest way to get niri is to install one of the distribution packages.
Here are some of them: [Fedora COPR](https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/yalter/niri/) and [nightly COPR](https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/yalter/niri-git/) (which I maintain myself), [NixOS Flake](https://github.com/sodiboo/niri-flake), and some more from repology below, including a [pacstall package](https://pacstall.dev/packages/niri/) for Debian-based distros.
