It relies on clients for wallpaper, +panels, screenshots, and so on to create a full desktop environment. +Labwc tries to stay in keeping with wlroots and sway in terms of general +approach and coding style. +In order to avoid reinventing configuration and theme syntax, +the openbox-3.4 specification is used. This does not mean that labwc +is an openbox clone but rather that configuration files will look and +feel familiar. + +labwc supports the following: + +•Config files (rc.xml, autostart, environment) +•Theme files and xbm icons +•Damage tracking to reduce CPU usage +•A basic root-menu (configured with menu.xml) +•HiDPI +•wlr-output-management protocol +•layer-shell protocol +•foreign-toplevel protocol (e.g. to integrate with panels and bars) +•Optionally xwayland + +Labwc uses the files listed below for configuration and theming. +get them from labwc github web page. + +file user over-ride location + +•rc.xml ~/.config/labwc/ +•menu.xml ~/.config/labwc/ +•autostart ~/.config/labwc/ +•environment ~/.config/labwc/ +•themerc ~/.local/share/themes/<theme-name>/openbox-3/ + +Suggested apps to use with labwc: + +Suggested apps to use with labwc: + +•Screen shooter: grim +•Screen recorder: wf-recorder +•Background image: swaybg +•Panel: waybar, yambar, lavalauncher, sfwbar +•Launchers: bemenu, fuzzel, wofi +•Output managers: wlopm, kanshi, wlr-randr +•Screen locker: swaylock |
