Devlog 2: Hello, world!
I finished copying Smallvil’s logic. That basically means 2 things:
- I have a semi-semi-semi-functional compositor already
- I’m on my own. Everything else I do I’ll have to research and implement myself.
Right now, I plan to go to sleep and then start working on getting it running without a parent compositor. Currently, it runs in a window inside another WM, and while that’s good for debugging, it needs to be able to stand on its own (2?) feet. After reading through Smallvil’s source, I think the hardest part will be determining when to render and receiving input, as both of those are handled in the winit event loop right now. Luckily, I have the Niri source code to read through.
