What is Vivarium?

A dynamic tiling Wayland compositor using wlroots, with desktop semantics inspired by xmonad.

Core features include:

  • Automatic/dynamic tiling with your choice of layouts.
  • Per-output workspaces: display the workspace you want, where you want.
  • Floating windows on demand.
  • (optional) XWayland support.
  • Layer shell support, compatible with tools like Waybar, bemenu and swaybg.

Vivarium is unstable and unfinished...but usable!
