  Description     : Customizable Wayland compositor (window manager)

Way Cooler is a customizable tiling window manager written in Rust for
Wayland and configurable using Lua.

way-cooler intends to be a fully-compatible AwesomeWM clone[1].I am sure
that many Debian users would be happy to start playing with it.

It is probably not ready for prime-time yet, but it wouldn't be a bad
idea to start working on dependency and get it in unstable so that
Debian users can try it out.

I am cc-ing the Rust team to see if there is interest in packaging it
for Debian. If there is none, I might put some time into it myself.
