Sway 1.5 contains 284 changes from 78 contributors. This release introduces a lot of new features, but also contains numerous bug fixes.

The recommended wlroots version to use with this release is 0.11.0.

New features

  • Headless outputs can now be created dynamically via the create_output
    command, and can be used with WayVNC
  • Input method editors (IME) are now supported via the input-method and
    text-input protocols
  • Adaptive synchronization (aka. variable refresh rate, VRR) can be enabled
    to reduce stuttering in games
  • Support for the viewporter protocol, allowing older X11 games to work
    better and improve performance
  • Allow virtualization and remote desktop software to inhibit keyboard
    shortcuts
  • Support for the wlr-foreign-toplevel-management protocol, allowing
    custom docks and window switchers

sway 1.5-rc1

Sway 1.5-rc1 contains 258 changes from 76 contributors. This release introduces a lot of new features, but also contains numerous bug fixes.

The recommended wlroots version to use with this release is swaywm/wlroots@4a4da25.

New features

  • Headless outputs can now be created dynamically via the create_output
    command, and can be used with WayVNC
  • Input method editors (IME) are now supported via the input-method and
    text-input protocols
  • Adaptive synchronization (aka. variable refresh rate, VRR) can be enabled
    to reduce stuttering in games
  • Support for the viewporter protocol, allowing older X11 games to work
    better and improve performance
  • Allow virtualization and remote desktop software to inhibit keyboard
    shortcuts
  • Support for the wlr-foreign-toplevel-management protocol, allowing
    custom docks and window switchers

sway 1.4 contains 190 changes from 52 contributors. Highlights include:

  • Support for VNC via wayvnc. The wlroots RDP backend has been removed.
  • Partial support for the MATE panel
  • Configurable input latency controls, see max_render_time in sway(5) and sway-output(5)
  • Keyboard grouping (useful for certain niche keyboard designs)
  • Support for xdg-shell v6 unstable has been removed

The recommended terminal emulator in the default configuration file is now alacritty.

Note: due to a release error, we skipped version 1.3.
