Wayland stacking compositor
Labwc stands for Lab Wayland Compositor, where lab can mean any of the following
- sense of experimentation and treading new ground
- inspired by BunsenLabs and ArchLabs
- your favorite pet
Labwc is a wlroots-based window-stacking compositor for wayland, inspired by openbox.
It is light-weight and independent with a focus on simply stacking windows well and rendering some window decorations. It takes a no-bling/frills approach and says no to features such as icons except window buttons, animations, decorative gradients and any other options not required to reasonably render common themes. It relies on clients for panels, screenshots, wallpapers and so on to create a full desktop environment.
In order to avoid reinventing configuration and theme syntax, the openbox 3.6 specification is used. This does not mean that labwc is an openbox clone but rather that configuration files will look and feel familiar.
