Swayfire

Sway/I3 inspired tiling window manager for Wayfire.

This project aims to emulate and improve upon sway/i3wm features as a plugin for the Wayfire compositor.

Currently, Swayfire implements most basic tiling features such as splits and window movement and navigation keys. Swayfire also supports mouse resizing and moving of windows/tiled parents.

NOTE: Swayfire is currently still in early development and not meant to be used yet.

Notable planned features:

• Sway/i3-like Window decorations (borders, titles, and tabbed and stacked titles as in Sway/i3)
• Sway/i3 ipc (wherever is makes sense)
• Option for rounded corners for floating windows and window groups
• Scratchpad

Compiling and Installing

# Swayfire is developped using clang, but should compile with gcc as
# well at least. The following exports are optional:
export CC=clang
export CXX=clang++

# Generate the build directory:
meson setup --prefix /usr build

# To compile Swayfire:
meson compile -C build

# To install Swayfire:
meson install -C build

Swayfire uses the c++17 standard and a modified llvm coding style defined in .clang_format. Please run meson compile format -C build to run the formatter before every commit.
