non-monolithic Wayland compositor

Index | wayland

Description

River is a non-monolithic Wayland compositor: it provides only the
compositor itself, while window-management policy is delegated to an
external client over a custom Wayland protocol. This separation lets
users mix-and-match compositors and window managers.
