INSTRUCTIONS

Nvidia building : Here

Dependencies:

Most of our dependencies are disponible in the official repos,
for speed is recomendable to use nala package manager intead of apt

installing nala will keep apt

sudo apt-get install -y nala
sudo nala install -y meson wget build-essential ninja-build cmake-extras cmake gettext gettext-base fontconfig libfontconfig-dev libffi-dev libxml2-dev libdrm-dev libxkbcommon-x11-dev libxkbregistry-dev libxkbcommon-dev libpixman-1-dev libudev-dev libseat-dev seatd libxcb-dri3-dev libvulkan-dev libvulkan-volk-dev  vulkan-validationlayers-dev libvkfft-dev libgulkan-dev libegl-dev libgles2 libegl1-mesa-dev glslang-tools libinput-bin libinput-dev libxcb-composite0-dev libavutil-dev libavcodec-dev libavformat-dev libxcb-ewmh2 libxcb-ewmh-dev libxcb-present-dev libxcb-icccm4-dev libxcb-render-util0-dev libxcb-res0-dev libxcb-xinput-dev libpango1.0-dev xdg-desktop-portal-wlr hwdata-dev
or if you don't want to use nala apt replacement do:
sudo apt-get install -y meson wget build-essential ninja-build cmake-extras cmake gettext gettext-base fontconfig libfontconfig-dev libffi-dev libxml2-dev libdrm-dev libxkbcommon-x11-dev libxkbregistry-dev libxkbcommon-dev libpixman-1-dev libudev-dev libseat-dev seatd libxcb-dri3-dev libvulkan-dev libvulkan-volk-dev  vulkan-validationlayers-dev libvkfft-dev libgulkan-dev libegl-dev libgles2 libegl1-mesa-dev glslang-tools libinput-bin libinput-dev libxcb-composite0-dev libavutil-dev libavcodec-dev libavformat-dev libxcb-ewmh2 libxcb-ewmh-dev libxcb-present-dev libxcb-icccm4-dev libxcb-render-util0-dev libxcb-res0-dev libxcb-xinput-dev xdg-desktop-portal-wlr hwdata-dev

but some dependencies that we requiere are a little older in the repos so we need to build them
Building libs from source

first get all of our sources for building then extarct them
Hyprland and containing folder
mkdir HyprSource
cd HyprSource

## We get Source
wget https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland/releases/download/v0.24.1/source-v0.24.1.tar.gz
tar -xvf source-v0.24.1.tar.gz

wget https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland-protocols/-/releases/1.31/downloads/wayland-protocols-1.31.tar.xz
tar -xvJf wayland-protocols-1.31.tar.xz

wget https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland/-/releases/1.22.0/downloads/wayland-1.22.0.tar.xz
tar -xzvJf wayland-1.22.0.tar.xz

wget https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/emersion/libdisplay-info/-/releases/0.1.1/downloads/libdisplay-info-0.1.1.tar.xz
tar -xvJf libdisplay-info-0.1.1.tar.xz

now only get inside each one, we build and install directly
build wayland 1.22.0

cd wayland-1.22.0
mkdir build &&
cd    build &&

meson setup ..            \
      --prefix=/usr       \
      --buildtype=release \
      -Ddocumentation=false &&
ninja
sudo ninja install

cd ../..
bulild wayland protocols

cd wayland-protocols-1.31

mkdir build &&
cd    build &&

meson setup --prefix=/usr --buildtype=release &&
ninja

sudo ninja install

cd ../..

Lets build libdisplay-info

cd libdisplay-info-0.1.1/

mkdir build &&
cd    build &&

meson setup --prefix=/usr --buildtype=release &&
ninja

sudo ninja install

cd ../..
Lets build Hyprland!!!

you will need to change the folder permisions due to the use of sudo, so in the future you can acces and modify the folder
chmod a+rw hyprland-source

cd hyprland-source/
modify config.mk and change PREFIX=/usr/local to PREFIX=/usr
or use this command
sed -i 's/\/usr\/local/\/usr/g' config.mk
also in that file you could use your custom cflags as for example adding -O3 or -Ofast optimization even -Og etc..
then only do:

sudo make install

*enjoy Hyprland !!
