Building and running sway-master

Read Original

This article provides a detailed, step-by-step tutorial for developers on how to compile and install the Sway window manager directly from its upstream Git master branch. It covers cloning the repository, managing dependencies (specifically wlroots as a subproject), using the Meson build system, and explains the rationale for static linking to avoid compatibility issues with system libraries.
