Usage
fe
Hyprland / Bare Wayland Compositor Users
The .desktop file uses Terminal=true which works with most desktop environments (GNOME, KDE, XFCE). If you're using Hyprland or another bare Wayland compositor that doesn't have a default terminal association, you may need to edit the desktop entry to explicitly specify your terminal emulator:
Exec=kitty fe
Replace kitty with your preferred terminal (foot, alacritty, wezterm, etc.).
