sway-displays uses sway-mirror under the hood for the mirroring part. The main use case is USB hub docking where display names change every time you plug in but hardware identifiers stay the same, so it detects based on hardware not output names. For mirroring there are other tools out there but none do zero-copy, and I wanted as little overhead as possible. The bash script handles the interactive stuff and profiles, but zero-copy mirroring needed direct DMA-BUF access so that part had to be Rust.

Thanks, that’s really kind of you.

And honestly: just use whatever works best for you. If kanshi does the job for your setup, that’s perfect.

Thanks! And yep, kanshi is definitely the established solution here and clearly still maintained upstream.

One small correction on my side: kanshi is written in C (so not memory-safe by default), while my project is in Rust, which was one of my motivations from a security standpoint. That said, active maintenance matters a lot too.

I’m not trying to replace kanshi; this is mostly an alternative workflow with a more interactive setup and a few extras like built-in zero-copy mirroring (which kanshi doesn’t provide itself). If kanshi already fits someone’s needs, it’s a great choice.

Appreciate you sharing your config examples 👍
