alt Hacker News> I said build on top of wlroots, not DWL.
Turns out, the wlroots API is so volatile atm that even the developer of the super small compositor DWL has to throw in the towel for now.

The same is said about DWM, its xorg counterpart, but I, for one, am a happy user of DWM.
Nearly every Wayland compositor is built on wlroots. Somehow they manage. But yeah, of course it's going to change more than X11, which is older than I am and more or less abandoned...
