It is a windowing system, but one taking more inspiration from X than wayland. So it is all about remote programs and transferring displays from one device to another. Personally, I find this area of study much more compelling than wayland. I also love how on the one side, you have the X crowd(admittedly me) saying "look, we have worked on this thing for 30 years it works and has this massive accumulated feature set". And on the other you have the wayland crowd saying "yes that's the problem, we could do so much better by throwing all that out and starting over with a local compositing focused struct". And then, amid this huge fight, not bothering anyone, you have one person, who comes out of his cave every couple of months and goes, "look at this, I made a new windowing system from scratch that is designed around transferring windows from one device to another" |
