DMS Desktop Environment

DMS packages are available via OBS (Debian/OpenSUSE), Launchpad PPA (Ubuntu), and Fedora COPR.

Required: DMS depends on packages from the danklinux repository (quickshell-git, matugen, cliphist, danksearch, dgop). Install the dependencies first, then install DMS. Niri is optional but recommended as the default compositor.
