Description

XWayland is a fully fledged X server implementation that act as a proxy between X11 clients and a Wayland compositor. It runs as a specialized Wayland client, while optionally using a set of XWayland specific Wayland protocols for implementing certain functionality. The Wayland compositor acts both as the Wayland display server XWayland connects to, as well as the Window Manager.
