Complete Wayland environment.
Hello,
is it possible to create full environment even without installing Xorg? I've heard about sway, but maybe there are reasonable alternatives? If no, I'll spend few hours / days with sway trying it 
I apologise for any possible language mistakes and greetings from Poland!

Wayland perhaps?
I possess a device, in my pocket, that is capable of accessing the entirety of information known to man.
I use it to look at funny pictures of cats and to argue with strangers.

Re: Complete Wayland environment.
sway does use wayland instead of X11 .
Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

Re: Complete Wayland environment.
Yesterday I've installed sway, but I don't know how to shut down or power off computer. Any ideas? Mod + Shift + e is a keybind for exit current session.

Re: Complete Wayland environment.
Bear in mind that due to good portion of apps still not supporting Wayland you will still have to use Xorg, even if in a Wayand session (Xwayland). Uness you intend to cripple your usage experience.

run poweroff from a console. I think you can even bind it to a keystroke; but it might be that your user has to be a member of the wheel group to do that.

Re: Complete Wayland environment.
If the systemd logind session is set up correctly and polkit is installed, then any user should be able to shut down.https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Al … o_shutdown
