The dynamic Config array conversion (Todo 2.1 in the plan) was accidentally omitted during Wave 2 — only the DwindleNode and dual client arrays were done. This commit implements the missing work: - Convert Config keybinds/buttons/scrolls from fixed-size arrays (keybinds[128]) to pointer+count+cap (keybinds, nkeybinds, keybinds_cap) - config_load allocates with ecalloc(16) for each array, doubles on overflow - on_config_reload and do_reload use deep-copy protocol: free old arrays → *newcfg → zero source pointers - sizeof(Config): ~250 KB → ~28 KB (latest measurement) - Zero-warning build
PeachWM
peachwm
peachwm is a fork of swindle
PeachWM is now a independent wayland compositor based on WLRoots
that is designed to be similar to MangoWC, while remaining lightweight.
PeachWM is maintained by HuntedByTheIRS.
Features
- Lua configuration
- Dwindle, Master, Monocle, and Floating layouts
- XWayland support
- Lightweight
Dependencies
- libinput
- wayland
- wlroots-0.20 (compiled with the libinput backend)
- scenefx (for rendering effects)
- xkbcommon
- wayland-protocols (compile-time only)
- pkg-config (compile-time only)
- a C23 compiler — GCC 14+ or Clang 18+ (clang recommended)
Install these (and their -devel versions if your distro has separate
development packages) and run make followed by doas/sudo make install,
if you wish to install it (installs to /usr/local/bin/ by default).
SceneFX
PeachWM uses scenefx for rendering eye-candy effects on screen. These effects are now considered stable and no longer experimental.
Effects
- Rounded corners — smooth, configurable corner rounding on windows
- Shadows — drop shadows for windows
- More effects are planned and on the way.
Configuration
Read example/config.lua. It should give you a basic idea of how configuring peachwm works.
Its good to move/copy /etc/peachwm/config.lua to $HOME/.config/peachwm/, but will start without this step if you choose not to.
Installation
make release -j$(nproc)
sudo make install
mkdir -p $HOME/.config/peachwm/
cp /etc/peachwm/config.lua $HOME/.config/peachwm/config.lua
Roadmap
- No longer require exiting peachwm upon input config changes
- Allow status bar requests (swaymsg like)
- Add smartgaps
- Implement scratchpad workspaces
- Add animations via scenefx
