Weston is the reference implementation of a Wayland compositor, and a
|
|
|
|
|
useful compositor in its own right. Weston has various backends that
|
|
|
|
|
lets it run on Linux kernel modesetting and evdev input as well as
|
|
|
|
|
under X11. Weston ships with a few example clients, from simple
|
|
|
|
|
clients that demonstrate certain aspects of the protocol to more
|
|
|
|
|
complete clients and a simplistic toolkit. There is also a quite
|
|
|
|
|
capable terminal emulator (weston-terminal) and an toy/example desktop
|
|
|
|
|
shell. Finally, weston also provides integration with the Xorg server
|
|
|
|
|
and can pull X clients into the Wayland desktop and act as a X window
|
|
|
|
|
manager.
