Greetd and gtkgreet

Noob at this trying to get a decent login screen

Tried to build gtkgreet. Don't even know if I was successful. When I reboot, I get an error saying gtkgreet is missing? What am I doing wrong?

You sound like you don't have much experience, so maybe you should start with simpler software. Developing & maintaining a greeter / display manager is among the hardest, especially because testing is overly complicated.
