Hyprland is now fully independent, dropping wlroots
With great pleasure may I announce that our move off of wlroots is now complete and MR 6608 is now merged.
After over 1000 comments on 6608 alone, and over 3 months of the entire process, the rewrite is done.
With it, Hyprland is no longer a wlroots-based Wayland compositor, and instead, a fully independent implementation of the protocol.
Don’t worry though, all your wlroots apps will still work.
