+
+## Recent Changes and Improvements
+
+This section summarizes the recent modifications made to the Hyprland setup, primarily focusing on integrating and adapting JaKooLit's comprehensive `DarkLight.sh` script for theme management.
+
+### Overview of Changes
+
+The primary goal was to enable reliable dark/light theme switching across Waybar, Kitty, GTK applications, and to resolve specific issues encountered during the setup.
+
+1.  **Waybar Configuration (`~/.config/waybar/configs/[TOP] RAM Default`)**:
+    *   Added the `memory` module and `custom/light_dark` module to the `modules-right` section for enhanced system monitoring and theme toggling.
+
+2.  **Waybar Styling (`~/.config/waybar/style.css`)**:
+    *   Ensured the "Golden Eclipse" dark theme was active.
+    *   Added specific styling and a hover animation for the `memory` module.
+    *   Implemented styling for the `custom/light_dark` module to visually integrate the theme toggle.
+
+3.  **Waybar Theme Toggle Script (`~/.config/waybar/scripts/theme-toggle.sh`)**:
+    *   **Major Change:** This script was simplified to primarily execute `~/.config/hypr/scripts/DarkLight.sh`. This delegates all comprehensive theme management (Waybar, Kitty, GTK, Kvantum, wallpapers) to JaKooLit's script, ensuring consistency and a single source of truth for theme logic.
+
+4.  **Dark/Light Theme Management Script (`~/.config/hypr/scripts/DarkLight.sh`)**:
+    *   **Cleaned Duplication:** Removed a large, duplicated section of code that was causing issues and making modifications difficult.
+    *   **Waybar Stability:** Introduced a `sleep 0.5` command after the initial `killall` of applications. This ensures Waybar (and other relevant applications) fully terminate before being restarted, preventing crashes or unexpected behavior during theme transitions.
+    *   **Kvantum Manager Suppression:** Commented out the `kvantummanager --set` line. Although the command was redirected to `/dev/null`, it was still unexpectedly launching the Kvantum Manager GUI. Disabling this line prevents the pop-up and improves the user experience.
+    *   **Notification Timeout:** Added `-t 5000` (5-second timeout) to all `notify-send` calls. This makes theme-change notifications disappear automatically after a short period, reducing visual clutter and removing the need for manual dismissal.
+
+5.  **Kitty Terminal Configuration (`~/.config/kitty/kitty.conf`)**:
+    *   **Reverted Color Overrides:** Explicit `foreground`, `background`, and `cursor` color settings were re-added. This was necessary because `DarkLight.sh` is designed to manage these lines directly via `sed` commands to apply the correct theme colors.
+
+6.  **Hyprland Window Rules (`~/.config/hypr/UserConfigs/WindowRules.conf`)**:
+    *   **Alacritty Opacity Fix:** Added a specific `windowrule = opacity 1.0 1.0, class:^(Alacritty)$` to ensure the Alacritty terminal is fully opaque. This overrides a more general `tag:terminal*` transparency rule that was unintentionally affecting Alacritty.
+
+## Future Work
+
+*   **Firefox Theming:** Further investigation is needed to ensure Firefox correctly follows the dark/light theme switch managed by `DarkLight.sh`. This is likely related to how `DarkLight.sh` interacts with GTK themes and how Firefox interprets those changes.
+*   **NVIDIA Environment Variables:** Review and potentially enable NVIDIA environment variables in `ENVariables.conf` for optimal performance with the NVIDIA RTX 4080.

+
+## Next Steps (Firefox Theming)
+
+Firefox's theming is still not behaving as expected. This is likely due to how `DarkLight.sh` interacts with GTK themes and how Firefox interprets those changes. Further investigation will be needed to ensure Firefox correctly follows the dark/light theme switch.
