This is Celestia Shaw 2.0 that turns

0:03

your Kali OS into lightning fast hyper

0:06

land experience.

0:12

In today's video, I will show you

0:14

exactly how to install, configure, and

0:17

customize the Kali OS with brand new

0:20

hyper land setup.

0:25

This turns your system into most

0:28

polished desktop environments.

0:36

The first make sure you have a fresh

0:38

installation copy of Kali OS with no

0:41

desktop on your PC or laptop.

0:45

Check out this video for detailed

0:47

instructions.

0:48

In my case, I have already installed the

0:51

Kali OS with no desktop alongside

0:53

Windows 11 on the same drive.

0:57

Now, let me go ahead and log in into

0:59

Kali OS using my credentials.

1:04

After installing Kali OS, make sure your

1:06

device is connected to the internet. And

1:10

as you can see, when I ran the ping

1:11

command to check the connection, I was

1:13

successfully receiving the packets.

1:24

The first thing to do after installing

1:26

the Kali OS is to update your system.

1:29

Just go ahead and type this command to

1:31

update your system.

1:38

Now, let's go ahead and increase the

1:40

console font size by typing this

1:42

command.

1:59

It's to install the essential packages

2:01

using Pacman.

2:03

Now go ahead and run this command to

2:05

install Git, Wget, Curl, and other

2:08

required packages.

2:21

Then we need our helper. I will be using

2:23

Paru.

2:24

Now simply clone this repository by

2:27

typing this command.

2:29

Then navigate into Paru and run this

2:31

command to install it.

2:55

Once the installation is done, just go

2:57

ahead and delete the cloned repository.

3:01

And as you can see, Paru has been

3:03

installed successfully.

3:07

Now head over to Celestia Shaw's GitHub

3:09

page to learn more about this project.

3:14

To install Celestia Hyperland on CachyOS

3:17

or any Arch-based distribution, we first

3:19

need to install the Celestia CLI using

3:22

Paru.

3:37

Once it's done, run this command to

3:39

install the Celestia.tar.gz.

3:43

Now follow the on-screen instructions

3:45

carefully. You may be asked multiple

3:47

times to enter your password to confirm

3:50

package installations.

3:52

This process may take a while and

3:54

depends on the speed of your internet.

4:15

And there we go. Celestia Hyperland has

4:17

been installed successfully without any

4:20

issues.

4:25

Next, go ahead and run this command to

4:28

install GDM.

4:40

Then go ahead and run this command to

4:42

enable GDM service.

4:45

Once it's done, start the GDM by running

4:48

this command.

4:53

Then from the bottom right corner,

4:55

choose Hyperland and enter your password

4:58

and login.

5:04

And just like that, we are inside the

5:06

brand new Celestia Hyperland

5:08

environment. This thing looks fantastic.

5:11

It's recommended to reboot the system to

5:14

affect all the changes.

5:28

And these are some of the default

5:29

keyboard shortcuts you can use to launch

5:32

applications, manage windows, switch

5:34

workspaces, and much more.

5:40

Now, let's increase the terminal font

5:42

size.

5:43

Go ahead and open terminal by pressing

5:45

super plus D.

5:49

Then navigate to this configuration

5:51

directory using this command. And this

5:54

is where all Celestia configuration

5:56

files are stored.

5:59

Then open terminal configuration using

6:01

your preferred text editor and look for

6:04

the font size option. Then change the

6:06

value to 20 points, then save the file.

6:12

Now close terminal with super plus Q and

6:15

reopen it using super plus D.

6:18

Now you can see the increased font size.

6:25

Now hovering your mouse cursor on the

6:27

top center of the screen opens system

6:30

control panel.

6:31

It has four sections: dashboard, media,

6:34

performance, and weather.

6:38

The dashboard shows the time, date,

6:40

weather, and system information.

6:44

The media section lets you control audio

6:46

playback. The performance section

6:49

displays real-time CPU, GPU, and memory

6:52

usage.

6:54

And the weather section displays the

6:56

current weather information.

7:02

You can press the super key to open the

7:04

Celestia application launcher where you

7:06

can access all of your installed

7:09

applications.

7:17

It also supports built-in commands. Now

7:20

simply type right angle symbol to view

7:22

the list of available commands.

7:25

Now from here, you can switch between

7:28

light and dark mode, change wallpapers,

7:30

and much more.

7:56

>> Now, let's open settings application.

8:05

You can also open settings by hovering

8:08

over the bottom right corner of the

8:09

screen.

8:11

Now, using the settings, you can enable

8:13

transparency across the interface to

8:16

enjoy beautiful blur effects.

8:26

The panel section lets you customize the

8:28

dashboard, taskbar, launcher, and

8:31

sidebar.

8:41

To get the latest Hyperland features,

8:44

improvements, and bug fixes, simply run

8:47

these commands to update the Celestia

8:49

shell.

8:59

Celestia also comes with a sidebar with

9:02

useful widgets.

9:06

It includes our workspace switcher, a

9:09

floating window shortcut, and quick

9:11

access to Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, battery, and

9:14

other system controls.

9:34

Now, hovering over the icons reveals

9:36

smooth animations and extra information.

9:42

And the power menu provides shutdown,

9:45

reboot, logout, and suspend options.

9:49

You can also adjust volume and

9:52

brightness with the built-in sliders.

9:59

Now, let's go ahead and create a custom

10:01

keyboard shortcut. Celestia uses

10:04

Lua-based configuration for Hyperland.

10:09

Now, these files let you customize

10:11

default applications, key bindings,

10:14

display settings, and much more.

10:22

Now, let's create a custom shortcut to

10:24

launch Chrome browser.

10:29

This is the Lua syntax used for defining

10:31

key bindings.

10:46

Now, simply replace the key combination

10:49

and application name with whatever

10:51

shortcut you want.

10:56

Now, for this example, I will assign

10:58

super plus G to launch Chrome.

11:02

After adding the brand new key binding,

11:05

just go ahead and save the file.

11:07

Now, when I press super plus G, Chrome

11:10

opens instantly.

11:26

Overall, CachyOS with Celestia Hyperland

11:29

is incredibly impressive. It delivers

11:32

one of the most elegant Hyperland

11:34

experience with smooth animations and

11:37

modern design.

11:39

And that's how you can customize the

11:41

Casio OS with Hyperland desktop

11:43

experience. Let me know what do you
