https://github.com/FriederHannenheim/cthulock Hey everybody. I'm releasing my new screen locker for Wayland which you can easily customize using the Slint language. Feel free to ask me any questions in the comments.___

Would you mind providing any more details on what exactly one can customise? Might give this a shot tomorrow.

Yeah sure. Well slint is a whole ui library and so you can customize basically anything. You could add extra text, move the clock and the password prompt wherever you want. You could even remove the password prompt and replace it by something else. Here's the config of the screenshot above:

import { LineEdit , TextEdit} from "std-widgets.slint";
export component HelloWorld {
    in property clock_text;
    in property checking_password;
    in-out property password &lt;=> password.text;
    callback submit &lt;=> password.accepted;
    forward-focus: password;
    states [
        checking when checking-password : {
            password.enabled: false;
        }
    ]

    Image {
        width: parent.width;
        height: parent.height;
        source: @image-url("wallpaper.png");
        HorizontalLayout {
            VerticalLayout {
                alignment: end;
                spacing: 10px;
                padding: 40px;
                width: 350px;
                Text {
                    text: clock_text;
                    horizontal-alignment: center;
                    font-size: 60pt;
                    color: white;
                }
                password := LineEdit {
                    enabled: true;
                    horizontal-alignment: left;
                    input-type: InputType.password;
                    placeholder-text: "password...";
                }
            }
        }
    }
}
