The release of the Ubuntu Sway Remix 23.04 distribution is now available, providing a pre-configured and ready-to-use desktop based on the mosaic composite manager Sway. This distribution is an unofficial edition of Ubuntu 23.04, designed for both experienced GNU\/Linux users and beginners who wish to try out a tiling window manager environment without the hassle of lengthy configurations. Builds are prepared for amd64 and arm64 architectures (Raspberry Pi). <\/p>\n
The distribution environment is built on Sway \u2014 a compositor that uses the Wayland protocol and is fully compatible with the tiling window manager i3, as well as the Waybar panel, the PCManFM-GTK3 file manager, and utilities from the NWG-Shell project, such as the Azote wallpaper manager, the full-screen application menu nwg-drawer, the utility for displaying script content on the screen nwg-wrapper (used to show keyboard shortcut hints on the desktop), the GTK theme, cursor, and font manager nwg-look, and the Autotiling script, which automatically arranges the windows of open applications like dynamic tiling window managers. <\/p>\n
The distribution includes both graphical applications such as Firefox, Qutebrowser, Audacious, Transmission, Libreoffice, Pluma, and MATE Calc, as well as console applications and utilities like the Musikcube music player, MPV video player, Swayimg image viewer, Zathura PDF viewer, Neovim text editor, Ranger file manager, and others. <\/p>\n
Another feature of the distribution is the complete abandonment of the Snap package manager; all programs are provided as standard deb packages, including the Firefox web browser, for which the official PPA repository from the Mozilla Team is used. The installer of the distribution is based on the Calamares framework.

Key Changes: <\/p>\n
\n
Sway has been updated to version 1.8 with support for the command «bindgesture» to attach actions to touchpad gestures, support for Wayland extensions xdg-activation-v1 and ext-session-lock-v1, and support for the configuration «disable while trackpointing» in the libinput library to manage the disabling of the touchpad while using a trackpoint joystick (e.g., TrackPoint on ThinkPad laptops).\n
Two basic touchpad gestures have been added: a three-finger swipe left or right to switch between desktops, and a three-finger swipe down to toggle the focused window to floating mode and back.\n
