![]() Wayhouse - A Wayland compositor based on libweston.ĭid I miss out on any other interesting Wayland compositor projects? There are a lot out there trying to be tiling window managers inspired by i3/Awesome as well as a lot of Wayland projects using Rust, so apologies if I overlooked an interesting one, but feel free to share your favorite independent Wayland projects with us in the forums. Wavy - A tiling Wayland compositor making use of WLC. From their project site:ĭWC - A dynamic Wayland compositor that tries to keep things simple. Way-Cooler can be customized by Lua and was inspired by i3 and Awesome. ![]() Way Cooler -Another tiling window manager written in Rust for Wayland. Outside the Mir codebase there are at least four compositors based on Mir that support different uses. There are additional compositors maintained and written by the Mir team in a number of Snaps. SWC - Another Wayland compositor library. Within the Mir codebase there are four different Wayland compositors each demonstrating a different behaviour. Rustland - A Wayland compositor written in Rust and implements an automatic tiling window manager.įireplace - Another Wayland compositor written in Rust. From the developer, "In under 50 lines of code, I've got something that can run both native Wayland programs and X11 programs via Xwayland (which is automatically launched on startup)." WLC - Not a compositor itself per say, but rather a Wayland compositor library for helping developers build their own Wayland compositors.ĪSC - ASC is designed as a simple Wayland compositor. ![]() Westford - A Wayland compositor written in Java with OpenGL. It looks decent for an independent project: Grefsen - Grefsen is a Qt/Wayland compositor that provides a minimal desktop. Or, in laymans terms, it assumes youre using a 3D desktop from the start, instead of bolting on 3D capabilities to an 2D framework. Given the recent Sway compositor update, I decided to take a fresh look at some of the other Wayland compositor alternatives on GitHub. Wayland is a new protocol that enables 3D compositors to be used as primary display servers, instead of running the 3D compositor as an extension under the (2D) X.org display server. While GNOME Shell, KDE Plasma, and Enlightenment are among the most talked about Wayland desktop/compositor implementations right now, there are still many active smaller projects working on their own Wayland compositors. ![]()
