Matthew Kosarek, a developer from Canonical, published the production of a composite manager miracle-wm 0.6 using the Wayland protocol and components for building composite managers mir . Miracle-WM supports the mosaic (tiling) layout of the windows, similar to the same in the projects i3 and soway. As a panel, waybar can be used. The project code is written in C ++ and is distributed under the GPLV3 license. Ready assemblies are format in format snap , as well as in RPM and DEB packages for fedora and ubuntu .
The goal of Miracle-WM is to create a composite server that uses mosaic windows control, but more functional and stylish than products such as swayfx . At the same time, the project allows you to use classic techniques for working with floating windows, for example, you can place individual windows over the mosaic grid or fix the windows to a certain place on the desktop. Virtual desktops are supported with the possibility of setting the default windows for each desktop (mosaic layout or floating windows).
It is assumed that Miracle-WM can be useful to users who prefer a mosaic layout, but want to get visual effects and a brighter graphic design with smooth transitions and colors. The configuration is determined in the format yaml . To install Miracle-WM, you can use the command “SUDO SNAP Install Miracle-WM-Classic”.
