# NexusOS boot-time branding: the Plymouth boot splash and the LightDM greeter
# (which is also what you see on lock -- light-locker just switches to it).
#
# Both are system-level and need root, which is why this is a standalone script
# rather than part of assets/themes/install-theme.sh.

# Usage: sudo bin/boot-branding.sh [--uninstall]

# Plymouth. A real copy is placed under /usr/share/plymouth/themes -- NOT a
# symlink into /home. The stock initramfs plymouth hook copies the theme path
# verbatim, so a symlink into an unmounted /home dangles at early boot and
# Plymouth falls back to text mode. That is what
# assets/boot/initramfs-hook-my-custom-logo exists to work around; with a real
# copy the hook is unnecessary.

# Greeter. slick-greeter cannot lay out a custom login screen the way the
# NexusOS-QML SDDM theme does, so the logo and wordmark are baked into the
# background image instead and the greeter's own centered login box lands under
# them. The SVG is used as-is: gdk-pixbuf's SVG loader is installed, so there is
# nothing to rasterize. Copied out of the repo because the greeter runs as user
# `lightdm` and the user home is 0750, so nothing in here is readable to it.

# manager is currently active, so switching between the two needs no re-run.
