[cache.nixos.org], like the rest of Nixpkgs.

Instead of requiring you to build Hyprland (and its dependencies, which may
include `mesa`, `ffmpeg`, etc), we provide a Cachix cache that you can add to
your Nix configuration.

[Hyprland Cachix](https://app.cachix.org/cache/hyprland) cache that you can add
to your Nix configuration.

The [Hyprland Cachix](https://app.cachix.org/cache/hyprland) exists to cache the
`hyprland` packages and any dependencies not found in [cache.nixos.org].

> [!WARNING]
> In order for Nix to take advantage of the cache, it has to be enabled **before**
> using the Hyprland flake package.
