A minimal login greeter for greetd that matches the look and feel of Noctalia Shell.
Noctalia Greeter is the screen you see before your desktop session starts. It lets you pick a user, enter your password, choose a Wayland session, and pick a color scheme - with the same visual language as Noctalia Shell.
It is built for greetd: greetd launches noctalia-greeter-session, which starts the bundled wlroots compositor and runs the greeter inside that session.
Pair it with Noctalia v5 if you want wallpaper and palette synced from the shell settings (optional).
Follow the installation guide for distribution packages, NixOS, greetd configuration, and a safe handoff from another display manager. If no package is available, use the separate source-build guide, then return to the main installation flow.
After installation:
Noctalia Greeter is a display/login greeter for greetd. It handles user/session selection and authentication UI.
It is not a desktop shell or compositor replacement.
