Description:
A library for using the Layer Shell Wayland protocol with GTK4. With this library you can build desktop shell components such as panels, notifications and wallpapers. You can use it to anchor your windows to a corner or edge of the output, or stretch them across the entire output. This Library is compatible with C, C++ and any language that supports GObject introspection files (Python, Vala, etc).
