A dock & system tray as one bar like KDE & Windows. So far most rices I've seen have docks and system trays separate, or even don't have a dock at all. I'm wondering if there any projects that already implemented this, before I would look at doing it myself with something like AGS or ewww. I'm on Hyprland.

If I'm understanding you aright

you want things to monitor your system as well as a system tray to let other software stick icons in

I think that the norm, dating back to X11, is to have an applet for the dock/wharf/bar/whatever-you-call-it that provides a system tray.

I'm currently using waybar in sway, and it has a system tray function and supports hyprland. The only programs I can think of off the top of my head that I've used that have applets that don't are conky and GKrellM.
