Wayland Demos
Weston
This repository contains a few demos application for the Wayland
project. There's a sample compositor that can run on KMS, under X11
or under another Wayland compositor and there's a handful of simple
clients that demonstrate various aspects of Wayland:
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.
Refer to http://wayland.freedesktop.org/building.html for buiding
weston and its dependencies.
