LiDM – light login manager

LiDM is a really light unix login manager made in C which aims to be highly customizable

LiDM is like any Display Manager you have seen such as SDDM or GDM but without using any X.org graphics at all. Instead being a purely text based interface inside your terminal/TTY.

This is free and open source software.

Features include:

• Simple as C, meant to depend only on standard libc and basic unix system headers.
• Fully customizable: ALL strings, colors (with its ANSI keys) and most behavior.
• Experimental Xorg support and wayland sessions, while supporting the default user shell (if enabled in config)
• Init agnostinc (systemd, dinit, runit, openrc and s6).
• Supports fido yubikeys (via pam_u2f).
