vortex is currently under active development as a high-performance, modern Wayland compositor focused on creating a visually appealing Wayland desktop experience. The project's goal is to create a self-contained, independent platform dedicated entirely to desktop compositing. In other words, the compositor is responsible only for compositing and its related aspects (such as window animations and IPC), while components like the desktop shell are intentionally abstracted away from it.
