Hyprland smart borders (aka dynamic borders)

A bash script to enable dynamic borders (aka smart borders) in hyprland using hyprland-ipc.

Handles almost all the cases which I could think of.

Note

This does what could be done via scripting mentioned here.

Important

The socket directory has been changed in Hyprland v0.40.0. Hence for old users, please update the script for everything to work properly.

See the demo to see how it works.
