I'm willing to try some wayland compositor, but I would need some advice to find adequate replacement for my usual X11 utilities.

  • the compositor/window manager : some tiling one, ideally close to herbstluftwm (hyprland, unless you've got a better match)
  • a tool to set up some custom keyboard map, like xmodmap
  • a key binding handler like sxhkd, able to manage key chains (bindings with prefix)
  • a customizable menu like rofi or dmenu
  • a bar like polybar : maybe waybar ?
  • a notification service
  • a tools to adjust screen luminosity, like xblacklight
  • a transparency fitter, like transset
  • a replacement for xset dpms, to put the screen to spleep

Any ideas are welcome !
