dwl
A small Wayland compositor inspired by suckless’s dwm, built on wlroots and configured by editing C source and rebuilding. It provides a compact tiling and floating session with tags and keyboard controls, leaving many desktop services and visual components to separate programs. The project describes itself as dwm for Wayland, aiming to carry dwm’s philosophy and core functionality to Wayland.
