Summary
Pluggable, composable, unopinionated modules for building a Wayland compositor. wlroots implements a huge variety of Wayland compositor features and implements them right. By using wlroots, you get high performance, excellent hardware compatibility, broad support for many wayland interfaces, and comfortable development tools. wlroots is developed under the direction of the

General
- X
- Enable support for X11 applications (XWayland)
- elogind
- Enable support for rootless session via elogind
- filecaps
- Use Linux file capabilities to control privilege rather than set*id (this is orthogonal to USE=caps which uses capabilities at runtime e.g. libcap)
- icccm
- Use xcb-icccm (from x11-libs/xcb-util-wm) util library for improved Xwayland introspection
- rootston
- Build the rootston example compositor
- systemd
- Enable use of systemd-specific libraries and features like socket activation or session tracking
- x11-backend
- Enable support for handling input/output devices through x11-libs/libxcb
