Description

A nested X server can run inside an existing X session for testing clients, desktops, or display behavior. This is useful for development, debugging, and isolating graphical experiments from the main session.

Nested servers still expose windows and input inside their own display. They are useful for testing but do not provide strong security isolation by themselves.

How to run
