Description

Vulkan applications on KDE Plasma 6 Wayland can connect to KWin HDR output support through a WSI layer. This is useful for users testing HDR games or graphics apps on compatible displays.

The layer is built from development source and affects graphics presentation. HDR behavior depends on KWin, driver, display, and application support, so expect testing and possible regressions.
