Thanks for investing time into this. I am currently a sway user but have been super impressed by Wayfire so I would obviously love to try your project! Can you add some sample wayfire configuration so I can try it out? I am aware that it's not really meant to be used yet, so if you want to hold off until then, I totally understand.

Also unrelated, you wrote you want to support rounded corners, but only for floating windows? Maybe I am misunderstanding, but what is the argument for limiting rounded corners to floating windows?

Hi, glad you're interested in (s)wayfire!

Can you add some sample wayfire configuration so I can try it out? I am aware that it's not really meant to be used yet, so if you want to hold off until then, I totally understand.

Swayfire is getting close to its first release, so the "not meant to be used" has become a little less true as swayfire has gained stability. Do note that multi-monitor support is not yet implemented.

I'll add a section to the readme for configuration. In the meantime, you can look here to see what options are available or you can browse through them with wcm. You'll have to enable the swayfire plugin and optionally the swayfire-deco window decoration plugin.

Also unrelated, you wrote you want to support rounded corners, but only for floating windows? Maybe I am misunderstanding, but what is the argument for limiting rounded corners to floating windows?

This is an old part of the readme from when I had just started and didn't know exactly how rounded corners would interact with tiling. The real goal is to have rounded borders whenever it makes sense and doesn't leave "holes".

For example, If you have gaps enabled (once gaps are implemented ofc), then you'd have rounded borders on all nodes; if you have a floating view, it can be rounded; without space around the view though, i.e. when the view is tiled without gaps, then you'd have weird holes like this:

Thanks for detailed answer! Will check out the links.

Makes a lot of sense. I am always rolling with gaps so I didn't consider that issue.

Anyway real cool project and thanks again!
