Alexander Orzechowski 09c360d503 layer_shell: Handle popups through popup descriptor
We tried to synchronize layer shell popups with the parent layer shell
on commits, but this is subtly wrong because we would only update
the position for one layer shell that was committed, but not any other
layer that might be affected. By moving handling to the scene descriptor
we can iterate all popups and ensure they are synchronized.

Configuration

If you already use i3, then copy your i3 config to ~/.config/sway/config and it'll work out of the box. Otherwise, copy the sample configuration file to ~/.config/sway/config. It is usually located at /etc/sway/config. Run man 5 sway for information on the configuration.

Running

Run sway from a TTY. Some display managers may work but are not supported by sway (gdm is known to work fairly well).
