Description

Applies predictable monitor and output layouts for Wayland compositors when displays are connected, disconnected, or changed. It helps users keep laptop docks, external monitors, and multi-display setups consistent.

Display automation can leave screens blank or arranged incorrectly if rules do not match the hardware. Keep a fallback way to edit the configuration, especially on single-display systems.
