Hey everyone,I am currently writing Vexland — a C++ port that brings Hyprland's exact window management logic, behavior, and fluid animation style over to X11. It is designed to look and feel just like Hyprland, but running on Xorg (configured with a red color scheme by default).I am going through Hyprland's source files one by one, extracting the core logic, and rewriting it from scratch to work natively with the X11 display server.Current implementation details to ensure X11 stability:Centralized Registry (CWindowState): All windows are tracked via a central registry to avoid segfaults from asynchronous window destruction on X11.Isolated Layouts (CSpace): Tiling and geometry calculations are decoupled into a separate CSpace class owned by CWorkspace.Animation Offsets: Workspace swipe/fade states are stored as simple double properties to be handled by a global animation manager to replicate the exact original transitions.The boilerplate is being put together right now before testing the X11 event loop.I wanted to check if there is an active interest in a feature-parity Hyprland experience on X11. If you have experience with X11 window mapping edge cases, feel free to drop your thoughts. I will push the repository to GitHub once the initial boilerplate is stable.
