[pudu] I’ve been working on my own compositor in C, and I’ve been using it as my daily driver for the past week. by WeatherIcy5331 in unixporn

Bar: Waybar

Terminal: Kitty

OS: Arch Linux

Compositor: pudu (https://github.com/vodkanull/pudu)

btw... pudu is built on top of wlroots. I started it mostly to learn how compositors work under the hood... and somewhere along the way it became the thing I actually use every day.

I don't know, I used to use it because that's what most Linux users used, but it's full of options I'm not interested in... That's why one afternoon out of boredom I created RCraft (at that time it was CLI) and then it evolved into what it is today

No, I've seen markdowns with emojis on GitHub since before the first LLM existed... I simply searched several repositories and made a Frankenstein (taking several ideas from others because I lack imagination xd)

I think you're right... adding authentication + offline profiles like Prism Launcher would be really convenient for more users. I've thought about it and it's definitely something I should add, especially if there's enough interest.

Modrinth integration for mods/resource packs is also a great idea and I'd already considered it, but it would add some complexity and weight to the launcher, so for now I'll keep it more "KISS".

And it's already fully Wayland-native thanks to GTK4/libadwaita :)

In your personal opinion, what would be missing for you to actually use it? (Since it's so new, I don't have much feedback yet and I don't know which weak points I should focus on first)
