Hey there, have been working on hyprland recently,
I have got plugins working in my hyprland service,
Each plugin can be built to a shared object and then referenced in the
config
plugins:
https://gitlab.com/lucyCole/GuixChannel/-/blob/main/lucyChannel/packages/hyprlandPlugins.scm?ref_type=heads
service:
https://gitlab.com/lucyCole/GuixConfig/-/blob/main/variationAndSource/existingSystemOperation/home/services/temporary.scm?ref_type=heads#L278

I also made a tomlplusplus package and submitted it to the rosenthal repo
but yh could probably just go in guix
