"Wayland is intended as a simpler replacement for X, easier to develop
and maintain. GNOME and KDE are expected to be ported to it.
Wayland is a protocol for a compositor to talk to its clients as
well as a C library implementation of that protocol. The compositor
can be a standalone display server running on Linux kernel modesetting
and evdev input devices, an X application, or a wayland client itself.
The clients can be traditional applications, X servers (rootless or
fullscreen) or other display servers.
Part of the Wayland project is also the Weston reference
implementation of a Wayland compositor. Weston can run as an X client
or under Linux KMS and ships with a few demo clients. The Weston
compositor is a minimal and fast compositor and is suitable for many
embedded and mobile use cases"
