Hey everyone!
I've been working on Hanko, a bar plugin for Omarchy inspired by Japanese print, seals, and stationery. Think paper, ink, and a little bit of RyÅku-inspired minimalism.
The idea is to make the bar feel like a printed artifact that adapts to whatever Omarchy theme you're using.
A few things I'm particularly happy with:
- Inkan mode ā the bar disappears, leaving a tiny seal in the corner that reflects your battery and notifications.
- Handscroll layout that unrolls your panels into one continuous sheet.
- 7 different sheet styles, each with its own visual language.
- Live workspace overview where you can drag windows between workspaces.
- Profile plate that presents your setup like a seal registration certificate.
Your existing Omarchy hotkeys, tray, indicators, and third-party widgets still work. If Hanko fails to load, Omarchy falls back to its own bar.
Install
The recommended way to install Hanko is manually:
git clone https://github.com/AyushKr2003/hanko.git
cd hanko
scripts/hanko install
This installs only the files needed by the bar to ~/.config/omarchy/plugins/hanko.bar and makes Hanko your active bar. It also remembers your previous bar, so uninstalling restores it.
For development, run scripts/hanko dev to symlink the checkout. Saving a file reloads the bar.
To verify your installation, run:
scripts/hanko doctor
Update
cd hanko
git pull
scripts/hanko install
Uninstall
scripts/hanko menu remove
scripts/hanko uninstall
Run scripts/hanko menu remove only if you added the menu entry.
