Description

Session startup for the niri Wayland compositor can be organized through a dedicated manager. It is useful for users who want a clearer way to bring up compositor-related services and desktop components when logging in.

This affects how a graphical session starts, so it is best for people already configuring niri. Keep a fallback session available while testing startup changes.
