Any plans on porting to wayland?
i'm reading this issue and this thread as i'm looking into migrate to wayland, since sooner or later we'll apparently have (i know this won't be very soon, but wayland is more and more mainstream). I know "any update on this?" is very annoying, and that's why i'm not open an issue, but... Any update on this?

A linux newbie has installed and configured Arch. Minimalist graphical capabilities?
I use the Awesome Window Manager. At it's core, it's a little difficult to figure out. But once you get the hang of assigning hot keys and whatnot, You'll be able to use it more fluently. I use it on all 3 of my machines (two desktops and one laptop). I Love it! I copy my configs from the machine I started it with and put them on the other 2 machines. Works great!

Widgets: which are the alternatives?
I'm trying to get the most out of my OS (Arch with X11 and Awesomewm), but I'm stuck with the widgets. I would like to create/use some utilities like an interactive calendar, small TODO list, dropdown menu, etc. but using the awesomewm widgets is too difficult and limiting. I found eww but it seems as difficult as the former widgets.

How do I get the batteryarc-widget to work properly?
Hello, I am new to Linux (using Mint rn) and very new to Awesome. I installed Pavel Makhov's awesome-wm-widgets pack since that seems very cool and widely used. While the arc portion of the widget works perfectly fine, the actual charge isn't showing in the middle of the arc. Here's what I mean.

> What widgets are you referring to that you found to have leaks?
I'll cite myself here: https://github.com/streetturtle/awesome-wm-widgets/issues/11...
I've had similar issues wherever GTK interacts with awful.spawn . Hence my GTK + awful.spawn.easy_async = extremely leak-prone
Here's another affected library [1]: https://github.com/deficient/volume-control
[1]: No bug under the main repo because they're considering it as a framework bug. See here for discussion: https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/issues/3584#issuecommen...

Awesome WM customizer/configurator
u/BaigGam3rss I still have some work to do to make my own widgets but you probably start with the documentation [1][2]. And then look at some other projects that use Awesome API to build widgets (ex: [3][4][5][6][7]).
