- Update to 1.0:
* We have completely overhauled the codebase. Some behaviors were changed
to match i3 behavior, in breaking ways. There are likely many bugs we
don't know about. Your millage may vary.
* swaygrab has been removed. For screenshots, try grim, and for video
capture try wlstream[2]
* This release depends on wlroots 0.5 and drops the dependency on wlc.
* This release depends on scdoc for generating man pages, and drops
the dependency on asciidoc.
* Experimental Nvidia support has been deprecated since its inception,
and has now been removed entirely. Please use nouveau and consider future
purchases from GPU vendors that support open source. Other proprietary
drivers are also unsupported.
* swaylock is now distributed separately
* swayidle, a new idle management daemon, is available separately
* 100% i3 compatible*
* 100% i3 IPC compatible*
* 100% i3-gaps compatible
* 100% i3bar compatible
* swayidle, a daemon for managing DPMS and idle activity (e.g. automatic
lock after a timeout), has been added - man swayidle to get started
* swaynag, an i3-nagbar replacement, has been added, with additional
features not supported by i3-nagbar - man swaynag to get started
* bindsym --locked now adds keybindings which work when the screen is
locked
* Command blocks are now generic and work with any command
* Window opacity can now be adjusted with the opacity command
* border csd now enables client-side decorations explicitly
* Atomic layout updates ensure that, when resizing windows and adjusting
your layout, you never see an invalid frame with partially drawn clients
