The first beginnings are here (not by me):

https://github.com/djpohly/dwl

It uses the wlroots[0] wayland compositor library which a lot of people
may not consider suckless however. I think the decision to use this
library is sound (as long as you don't want to depend on swc[1]/wld
for this). You end up replacing ~100K SLOC of X (AFAIR) with ~100K SLOC
of wlroots.


Cheers,

Silvan
