Xfce Desktop Gains Rust-Based Wayland Compositor Xfwl4 for 4.22 Release
The Xfce desktop environment is set to integrate a new Wayland compositor named Xfwl4, written in Rust. This development, reported today by 9to5Linux, marks a significant step towards modernizing the Xfce environment's display server capabilities. The Xfwl4 compositor is planned for inclusion in the upcoming Xfce 4.22 release, signaling Xfce's commitment to Wayland support. This move enables Xfce users to leverage the performance and security benefits offered by the Wayland protocol, moving beyond the traditional X.Org server.
