vivarium VS awesome-wayland

Take a look to Vivarium It is more recent it worked decently and it is remakably easy to config.

I wrote Vivarium specifically to behave like my old xmonad setup, although it isn't at all like xmonad internally. It's configurable in C.

Since various people are asking about xmonad-like tiling in wayland:

I wrote Vivarium[0] specifically to be a wayland compositor that behaves exactly like my (fairly simple) xmonad config, but it's a relatively new/unstable compositor and nothing like xmonad internally.

River[1] has a fantastic tiling model via user-provided executables, which makes it very flexible and probably a good fit for many people wanting something xmonad-like.

Waymonad[2] exists as a direct xmonad-like compositor, but I think development has been basically stalled for a long time. Sometimes there's discussion about reviving it though.

Vivarium has xwayland as an option, enabled by default.

https://github.com/inclement/vivarium.git and https://github.com/djpohly/dwl.git are also great projects in the same vein.

Yup. Here is an example list of things you can swap around. https://github.com/natpen/awesome-wayland

You didn't say whether your current config is based on X or Wayland therefore two links with Wayland applications. Are we Wsyland yet and awesome wayland

plenty others of all sorts.

> auto keyboard/mouse scripting with xdotool

There's a few tools for this: https://github.com/natpen/awesome-wayland#tools

> not have unnecessary mouse/keyboard to monitor delay

There's none that I can notice. Mice cursor are rendered with hardware support

Here's one of many forks of an awesome-wayland repository that lists what's going on: https://github.com/natpen/awesome-wayland

customization isn't killed, it just takes time to adapt to a new protocol. check out all the stuff you can do with wayland

More specifically, see: awesome-wayland and arewewaylandyet. Sway-addons also has interesting stuff in it, like wl-clipboard which is mostly compatible with Klipper.
