The first release of LWQt, a variant of the LXQt user interface 1.0, has been presented, translated to use the Wayland protocol instead of X11. Like LXQt, the LWQt project is described as a lightweight, modular, and fast desktop environment that adheres to classic desktop organization methods. The project's code is written in C++ using the Qt framework and is distributed under the LGPL 2.1 license.
The first release includes the following components, adapted for use in a Wayland-based environment (the other LXQt components are used without modification):
- LWQt Mutter — a compositor based on Mutter.
- LWQt KWindowSystem — a library for working with windowing systems, ported from KDE Frameworks 5.92.0.
- LWQt QtWayland — a Qt module with implementations for running Qt applications in a Wayland environment, ported from Qt 5.15.2.
- LWQt Session — session manager.
- LWQt Panel — panel.
- LWQt PCManFM — file manager.
