Adding Glue to a Desktop Environment
For being written in 2019, I am surprised that the article had no mention of the existence of Wayland. On my systems I have already moved off of Xorg onto Sway¹ as my compositor and window manager and have no intention of going back. Sway has a great programability via it&#x27;s own swaymsg IPC protocol that allows me to do all the manipulations that I would care to do, and even works on my dual-paned HiDPI 5K monitor.<p>¹ <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;swaywm.org" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;swaywm.org</a>
