**WIP: Whilst the project is working and installable, there are still a lot of
bugs and limitations.**

A minimal lightweight TUI [Display Manager/Login
Manager](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Display_manager) written in Rust
2021-12-28 22:18:22 +00:00
similar to [Ly](https://github.com/nullgemm/ly).
## Goal
The goal of this project is to create a small, robust and yet customizable
Login Manager which can serve as the front-end to your graphical GNU/Linux
or BSD environment. Lemurs uses Linux PAM as its method of authentication.
## Installation
2021-12-31 19:02:53 +00:00
The `install.sh` script can be used to compile and setup the display manager on
your Unix machine. This will perform multiple steps:
1. Build the project in release mode (requires Rust's *cargo*)
2. Setup the `/etc/lemurs` folder which contains some of the configuration and
necessary files such as your selection of window managers.
3. Disables the previous Display Manager
4. Copy over the *systemd* service and enables it.
