Yes, for window managers, itโ€™s worth finding a good strongly opinionated distro or script to start with, so you donโ€™t have to hunt down and configure a dozen tools.

ML4W, Dank Linux, Zirconium, Omarchy come to mind

    Brodie Robertson just made a video about Niri.

    So I tried out Noctalia shell.

    I just love it. Beautiful, responsive, enough settings in the GUI. I think it's a keeper.

    I went Windows > Xfce > Plasma > Gnome

    What distro are you running Niri and Noctalia on? Did you find it easy to install?

    I use EndeavourOS. Both are in the AUR, so it was really simple. (obligatory mention of the greatness of Arch Wiki)

    The hardest part was figuring out how to get Waybar to disappear. It was showing below the Noctalia menubar.
