Description

Scrollable tiling gives a Wayland desktop a different window-management model, where windows are arranged in columns and navigated through a larger workspace. It is useful for users who want keyboard-friendly tiling without the usual fixed-grid feel.

This compositor can replace the graphical session, so it affects window behavior, shortcuts, displays, and portal integration. Test it carefully before making it the default environment.
