kiwmi is a work-in-progress extensive user-configurable Wayland Compositor.
kiwmi specifically does not enforce any logic, allowing for the creation of Lua-scripted behaviors, making arduous tasks such as modal window management become a breeze.
New users should be aware of the  steep learning curve present, however this will be reduced as the project matures.
