"SirCmpwn's Wayland window manager"

sway is a work in progress i3-compatible window manager for Wayland.

Chat on #sway on irc.freenode.net

Rationale

I use i3 on xorg. Wayland is coming, and i3way still has zero lines of source code after two years.

Status

See "i3 feature support"

Installation

Arch Linux

Install aur/sway-git.

Manual

Dependencies:

  • cmake
  • wlc
  • xwayland

Compiling:

cmake .
make
# sudo make install

Binary shows up in ./bin (or /usr/local/bin if you make install).

Configuration

mkdir ~/.config/sway
cp ~/.config/i3/config ~/.config/sway/

Running

sway

If you run this while xorg is running, it'll run inside of an x window (useful for testing). Otherwise, it'll run wayland properly.
