Description : dynamic tiling Wayland compositor based on wlroots
- From the readme:
"
Hyprland is a dynamic tiling Wayland compositor based on wlroots that doesn't sacrifice on its looks.
It supports multiple layouts, fancy effects, has a very flexible IPC model allowing for a lot of customization, a powerful plugin system and more.
"
Packaging-wise it'll be complicated. hyprland embeds multiple subprojects [0]. hyprland-protocols [1] would need to be a seperate source package; this is easily doable from a
quick glance. A fork of udis86 [2] is also embedded; coincidently I prepared some initial udis86 packaging for ppsspp so this won't be that much of an issue.
The third embedded project is wlroots [3] which will be the biggest problem imo as hyprland (statically) links onto the latest wlroots HEAD which will be hard to
devendor, if not impossible.
I built hyprland locally and ran it for a bit; it looks promising but still has some (minor) bugs and quirks imo.
I don't have time to package or maintain this atm but I might get back to it at some point.
This bugreport is to document the progress/work needed for hyprland.
