Description: flexible taskbar application for wayland compositors

compositors, designed with a stacking layout in mind. Originally developed for
Sway, SFWBar will work with any wayland compositor supporting layer shell
protocol, the taskbar and window switcher functionality shall work with any
compositor supportinig foreign toplevel protocol, but the pager, and window
placement functionality require sway (or at least i3 IPC support).
