GLFW has merged proper support for client-side window decorations on Wayland!
If you find the list "odd" feel free to change it on Wikipedia. Also Mir is literally a Wayland compositor as stated by the git repo. To my limited understanding (I never done anything with it, I only saw it on the Wikipedia list) it's quite similar to wlroots.

Interesting opinions on the shortcomings of Wayland
i see mir development still active on github tho https://github.com/MirServer/mir
- Can some one explain to me in basic terms why snaps are so disliked?

How X Window Managers Work, and How to Write One
People have already mentioned wlroots as a starting point, but there is a less opinionated and more compatible (NVIDIA-ready) library that I’m really quite fond of called Mir: https://github.com/MirServer/mir
One thing to note, Wayland, unlike X, does not support server side decorations yet, so compositor’s responsibilities are mostly just placing windows.

How to patch dwl?
Patching autostart:

steamvr now working on DWL
If any of you have attempted to use SteamVR with DWL then you probably ran into the same issue I did. It doesn't have support for DRM leasing, so it can't actually show an image on the headset.

Can someone recommend a compositor to me?
Have you checked DWL which is DWM for Wayland? I haven't tried it yet so I can't say anything more.
-
Master and Stack setup
There's a python script called stacki3 that works both on i3wm and sway. There is also a dwm clone for wayland called dwl.
-
I actually use linux because its objectively better
I currently use dwl which is much, much lighter than i3 and suits my needs. On my laptop I just don't have a window manager of any kind installed, I can get by with lynx and the TTY.

Help needed with Wayland (riverwm and dwl) on Void Linux
I wanted to try two wayland compositors out (specifically dwl and river) and cannot for the life of me seem to get it working properly. I am currently doing this inside a VirtualBox vm.
