"SirCmpwn's Wayland window manager" is a work in progress i3-compatible window manager for Wayland. Read the FAQ.

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

From Packages

sway is not supported by many distributions yet. Here's a list of packages available for you to install:

Compiling from Source

Install dependencies:

  • cmake
  • wlc
  • wayland
  • xwayland
  • asciidoc
  • pcre
  • json-c
  • pango
  • cairo

Run these commands:

cmake .
make
sudo make install

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 /etc/sway/config to ~/.config/sway/config. Run man 5 sway for information on the configuration.

Running

Run this from a tty (instead of starting x):

sway

If you run it from within x, it will spawn x windows instead of using your hardware directly (useful for development).
