neuroUI

Arch Linux, but it's yours.

Arch Linux KDE Plasma rolling by Orchid

Apply the branding

One command. Renames your OS to neuroUI, applies the icon, and patches KDE's About This System screen.

curl -fsSL https://orchidneurons.neocities.org/brand.sh | bash
This script writes to /etc/os-release and /etc/lsb-release. Review the source before running. Requires sudo.

Under the hood

  • Pulls icon.png directly from the neuroUI GitHub repo
  • Overwrites /etc/os-release — sets NAME="neuroUI" and links back to Orchid's Hub
  • Patches /etc/lsb-release for LSB-aware tools
  • Copies icon to /usr/share/pixmaps/neuroui.png
  • Replaces KDE Breeze Dark's About logo if the path exists
  • Hints fastfetch config if detected — type: "kitty" for proper image rendering
  • Cleans up temp files after itself
