Making a Wayland Compositor and WM using Rust

86 points anantnrg

Hello fellow rustaceans, I'm trying to build a modular Wayland compositor and window manager like Hyprland in Rust. So far in my research, I've come across Smithay and it looks like it is the only maintained implementation of the Wayland protocols for Rust. But I couldn't find any starting point or tutorials on how to get started with Smithay. So if anyone of you guys have done this before or know something about it, please do let me know. Thx :)
