4 years, 65 versions, and now iroh 1.0. Here's to the next chapter and stability: a wire protocol you can depend on, with plenty of incremental features on the roadmap.

Addenum to my @LAS talk!

I don't think people realized that #flatpak next basically fixes everything. Browsers will use their own sandboxes, steam, password managers, etc.

And a new VPN portal. All of the razorburn goes away.

All we need to do is gather a bunch of #rust nerds.

I would like too amend my statement: "The gamer kids and the rust kids will save Linux, and the ops people will help them succeed."

[[honestly wtf how did so much stuff happen, it's been barely over a month]]

#niri #smithay #wayland #rust

After a full day of writing release notes (god how'd it take so long 😫), niri v25.01 is out with Floating Windows and Working Layer-Shell Desktop Icons and Layer-Shell Screencast Blocking Out and so many more improvements! Yes, you read that right, we finally escaped zerover! I feel that niri is now ready to graduate from v0.1

#niri #smithay #wayland #rust

Interactive window moving, laptop lid and tablet mode switch binds, mouse and touchpad scroll speed setting in today's niri v0.1.10 release!

github.com/YaLTeR/niri/release…

Also, niri-ipc is now on crates.io, but keep in mind that it will not be Rust-semver-stable: crates.io/crates/niri-ipc

#wayland #smithay #rust #niri

By the way! I'll be giving a talk at RustCon in Moscow on December, 6!

rustcon.ru/

Wherein I will briefly describe what a Wayland compositor is, and then show several testing and profiling workflows that I've been using to keep niri stable, robust and performant.

(The invitation to submit a talk was completely unexpected, guess niri found its way into the right eyes. 😅)

There will be a recording, though in Russian.

#rust #niri

After the Waybar maintainer speedran merging my niri modules and releasing, I would feel bad delaying any longer, so here's niri 0.1.9 :)

Event stream IPC for bars, better window resizing, properly named outputs, on-demand VRR, out-of-the-box fix for NVIDIA flickering, and other improvements!

github.com/YaLTeR/niri/release…

#niri #smithay #wayland #rust

My Wayland compositor, niri, turns one today!

Here's v0.1.8 with bind key repeat, screenshot UI pointer toggle, gradient color spaces, wlr screencopy v3 and output management, and lots of other improvements: github.com/YaLTeR/niri/release…

#niri #smithay #wayland #rust

niri v0.1.7 is out with fractional scaling, window screencasts and many smaller improvements!

github.com/YaLTeR/niri/release…

#niri #smithay #wayland #rust

Niri 0.1.6 with interactive window resizing, rounded corners, named workspaces, mouse view scrolling, animation custom shaders, screen transition!

github.com/YaLTeR/niri/release…

Didn't realize quite how many release notes there would be this time; even had to use an extra level of headings. 😅

#niri #smithay #rust #wayland

All the animations, plus VRR, today in niri 0.1.5: github.com/YaLTeR/niri/release…

I also remade the demo video to showcase the animations and some of the newer features!

#niri #smithay #rust #wayland

Amidst all the fires being put out, niri 0.1.4 which can block out windows from screencasts! github.com/YaLTeR/niri/release…

And also gamma control, focus follows mouse, warp mouse to focus, wheel and touchpad scroll bindings, xdp-gnome 46 support.

Also, every single config option is now documented on the wiki! Which took like an entire week of work (even though I was reusing a lot of my previously written docs in the config). Check it out here: github.com/YaLTeR/niri/wiki/Co…

#wayland #smithay #rust #niri

Tagged niri v0.1.3: github.com/YaLTeR/niri/release…

This one has much improved touchpad gestures with inertia, springs, rubberbanding and everything else I copied from libadwaita, my primary source for things that feel good

Also thanks @alice for helping and giving feedback on the gestures and for giving a try to the touch support!

#wayland #rust #smithay

The window opening animation is now live as part of niri v0.1.2: github.com/YaLTeR/niri/release…

I'm really looking forward to more animations, but wow they sure do need a lot of care to get right in all the edge cases.

Also, I added a way to programmatically invoke compositor actions, and turns out that's quite useful for making video demos!

#wayland #rust #smithay

Well, I'm happy to release the first stable version of niri, my scrollable-tiling compositor: github.com/YaLTeR/niri/release…

Very satisfied with the current state, even though there's plenty left to do. Took a lot of time and work but I've certainly learned a lot, and I'm glad to have contributed a bit to Smithay too!

#wayland #rust #smithay

A month has passed and a number of important additions have landed in niri, so here's a second alpha release: github.com/YaLTeR/niri/release…

Highlights include relative-pointer and pointer-constraints which let Xwayland masterfully handle 3D games mouse look, and popup unconstraining which prevents popups from opening off-screen. I actually made popups place within their window with some padding, which looks quite nice.

#rust #wayland

Decided to make a new demo video for niri, finally. The last one was so old that niri didn't even have cursors implemented, it showed an orange rectangle instead. 🫠

Here's the link again for the curious: github.com/YaLTeR/niri

Very happy I've come this far writing my own compositor from scratch. Honestly thought my motivation would only last for two weeks max, but here we are.

Learned a ton in the process, and now this experience helps me with Mutter & Shell profiling.
