Description: Example window manager using GNOME's window manager library
Mutter is a Wayland display server and X11 window manager and
compositor library. It contains functionality related to, among other
things, window management, window compositing, focus tracking, workspace
management, keybindings and monitor configuration.
.
Internally it uses a fork of Cogl, a hardware acceleration abstraction
library used to simplify usage of OpenGL pipelines, as well as a fork
of Clutter, a scene graph and user interface toolkit.
.
This package contains the mutter executable. It can be used as a
standalone window manager, but is primarily intended for debugging.
