Smithay has both a pure Rust and libwayland-based implementation, you can pick iiuc. And the OpenGL problem isn't fair, OpenGL is such a flaming heap of poor design that binding to libwayland to use it is the least of your problems. Better to use Vulkan instead for this purpose imo. Event loops are common in many languages. |

Including rust - I'd have to dig in again to remember exactly why the wayland one was so bad at interacting with rust to be honest. I know it had something to do with how ownership of callbacks and objects interacted with the event loop. I know I didn't think I could represent it much better in python.
OpenGL may be a shit show, but it's necessary (to be able to expose it to clients) for a modern desktop. I think I was doing this either before or in the really early days of Vulkan so I don't really know how that changed things.
