No worries! Everyone starts somewhere.

I've been managing them declaratively by making `exec-once` calls to
`hyprctl plugin load`, so maybe the service could use those. Another
possiblity is fabricating hyprpm's state.[1]

That's what I was wondering myself. Maybe it's possible to modify or
wrap hyprland's .desktop entry to encapsulate the whole thing in a
service? Like a hyprland.desktop that actually starts a service that
runs the REAL hyprland.desktop session. That way you could construct
your DE out of services configured in guix itself.

Are you editing using emacs? If so, you can use display-fill-column-mode
to see the column limit. Otherwise, just skim through the style guide
linked by the manual. A motion I do often after some heavy editing is
typing C-M-u a few times to move a few scopes up, C-M-space to select
the while s-expression, and then C-M-q to re-indent the region.
