Just another wayland compositor
I decided to build a wayland compositor based on wlroots. The reason? I wanted to have a dynamic tiling window manager where you can actually create new layouts without playing around with the source code. So yeah here is the result of that work: https://github.com/werererer/japokwm of course with an AUR package.
