-wallpaper.nix installs wpaperd and deploys your wallpaper files from the repo (./assets/conf/desktop/wallpaper/pictures/) into ~/conf/desktop/wallpaper/pictures. It also deploys the default wallpaper configuration from assets/conf/desktop/wallpaper/wallpaper.conf into ~/conf/desktop/wallpaper/wallpaper.conf, which is the file you can edit as a user override.
+rotating_wallpaper.nix installs wpaperd and deploys your wallpaper files from the repo (./assets/conf/desktop/wallpaper/pictures/) into ~/conf/desktop/wallpaper/pictures. It also deploys the default wallpaper configuration from assets/conf/desktop/wallpaper/wallpaper.conf into ~/conf/desktop/wallpaper/wallpaper.conf, which is the file you can edit as a user override.
 Finally, it creates a systemd user service (wpaperd.service) that automatically starts wpaperd at login and keeps it running, using your override config so wallpapers rotate according to your settings.
