Description

Starts a minimal Wayland compositor designed to show one application in a controlled kiosk session. It is useful for appliances, information screens, test environments, and dedicated workstations where users should stay inside a single app.

Use it when you intentionally want a locked-down graphical session. It is not a full desktop environment, so panels, launchers, settings apps, and normal window management are outside its goal.
