What do you guys use to manage monitors?
For an arandr replacement, https://github.com/swaywm/sway/wiki/i3-Migration-Guide recommends wdisplays.

But, Sway also supports a Wayland protocol which allows other applications to configure the displays instead. You can read it here if you want the gritty details. My preferred application to configure Sway's outputs is wdisplays.

Are there Wayland equivalents of xrandr and xinput?
You could have a look at wdisplays. Uses wlroots.

Three monitor configuration
I run 3 monitors in a similar config manually configured with negative x values for the left most monitor, it worked ok, but now I use https://github.com/artizirk/wdisplays for an easy life

Tell HN: Gnome on Wayland Is Amazing
sway laptop user here (for almost 2 years I think?).
I spent a little while on this, but I migrated from i3, so I just ported every little section of my config bit by bit.
In terms of battery bar and other "bar" type things, I use waybar[0] which basically does all the things you'd expect by default (just install and it "works").
For multi-monitor, config, I initially setup with wdisplays[1] (think arandr for wayland) and then manually copied the positions into my sway config. Monitor positioning was the only thing I needed to setup (and telling it that one monitor was HDPI) and then all of the scaling and everything worked perfectly. This was my biggest selling point for wayland, I now get nice crisp fonts and application scaling works nicely (which was not the case with X).
volume control from the keyboard took no time, just a couple of extra lines.
There was some stuff to do with the clipboard (wl-clipboard[2]) and screenshots (grim[3] + slurp[4]) that required some setup, but again, just a few lines, and didn't take much mental load.
Oh and I needed to change my notifications daemon(dunst[5]), and chose to change my program launcher to one with a nicer interface and cleaner fonts (wofi[6]).
I think that's all the tweaking that I did. Oh, and I needed to do something with pipewire to sort out screensharing at the start, don't remember that too well though...

How to enable Primary Selection and Clipboard?
With the default config I noticed I couldn't paste contents from the selection buffer in some applications, so I added the following wl-clipboard calls in my hyprland.conf:
- macOS Command-Line Tools You Might Not Know About
-
Announcing zp: zp is a cli command to copy the contents of the source file or of the std output buffer to the clipboard, allowing users to easily paste the contents into another file or program
This is just kinda how wayland works. The way wl-clipboard handles it is it forks off and stays in the background. That process is what serves the clipboard requests.

Attach file path from clipboard to mutt/neomutt email
On wayland wl-paste pastes the from the clipboard. On X11 replace wl-paste with either xsel --clipboard --output or xclip -selection clipboard -o

I'm not 100% sure what you're asking.

How can I run a script with clipboard as the only parameter?
I just had a quick Google and xclip or wl-clipboard may be what you’re looking for. I’ve never used them but they sound promising.
