uses tags (like dwl, river) instead of workspaces. So I'm learning tags and I do like it overall.
It's also C based which I prefer, as I'm comfortable adding code if needed. Has potential.

Just gave it a try.
fuzzel & foot ready out of the box....
A ebuild would be nice 2 have, especially to optimize build the portage way....
Thks 4 ur attention, interest & support.

Thoughts on it so far? |
I like it, well enough, it's stable, I've even had some stuff merged, menus, osd enhancements, etc.
But their focus now seems to be more worrying about things like rounded borders than other things I would focus on.
On the other hand, things like lxqt and some of the lesser linux distros have added code to add features they need or want.
I don't want to fork it for my own use, too much cruft I would have to change.
Edit to add: They are pretty good about interacting with issues, suggestions, code donation, etc. It's in the wayland-desktop repo.
Croissant is similar, but at this stage, it's just been written (more or less) so a clean consistent code base, more potential for me to fork it for personal enhancements.
I made an ebuild based on labwc just changing the links to the code, minimal but works.

Sorry to ask, how did you manage | Code: | Run-time dependency libsfdo-basedir found: NO (tried pkgconfig and cmake)
Looking for a fallback subproject for the dependency libsfdo-basedir

| Code: | src_install() {

}
src_configure() {
local emesonargs=(
--wrap-mode=default
)
meson_src_configure
} |
If the ebuild already has src_install and/or src_configure, then add appropriate lines to what's there.
Since it's for my own use, I haven't prettied it up, my ebuild is a mish-mash of labwc and croissant, but I only use the 9999 part.
https://github.com/droc12345/local/blob/master/portage/gui-wm/croissant/croissant-9999.ebuild is a link to what I use, you can copy it and clean it up, for your use instead.

Nice sharing...
Never mind the mish-mash 
However failing here as | Code: | Found CMake: /usr/bin/cmake (3.30.5)
Run-time dependency libsfdo-basedir found: NO (tried pkgconfig and cmake)
Looking for a fallback subproject for the dependency libsfdo-basedir
Cloning into 'libsfdo'...
fatal: unable to access 'https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/vyivel/libsfdo.git/': Could not resolve host: gitlab.freedesktop.org
meson.build:64:15: ERROR: Git command failed: ['/usr/bin/git', 'clone', 'https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/vyivel/libsfdo.git', 'libsfdo']
|
FEATURES=-network-sandbox remains required here to build.
I remember there is a way to fix that at ebuild level, but can't remember how... 
Any help welcome.
Thks 4 ur attention, interest & support.

RESTRICT=network-sandbox should be added to the ebuild.
Alternatively, it would be better to have a package for that subproject, safety wise.

Forgot about that, I have
FEATURES="$FEATURES split-log -network-sandbox"
in my make.conf.
And yeah, I could have made separate ebuilds for the subprojects, most of the supporting subprojects are pretty new. And I was lazy.
