Update July 28, 2025

What have I been up to?

-Whoops! I missed this month's update by a long shot, but I still want to get it out there before the end of the month. -

-This month was busy busy. I released v0.6.0 of miracle-wm which adds a bunch of new features, go and check it out if you haven't already! I am nearly finished with the sway/i3 IPC support and have big plans to wrap that up before the middle of August. There really isn't much more to go on that front so I might as well close that chapter. On top of that, the more interesting features of miracle that I have planned (e.g. some built-in shell integrations) are motivating me to wrap up the boring parts first. -

-Aside from miracle, I've continued to land a bunch of things in Mir recently around accessibility. The magnifier work is finally done, so go check that out if you use that feature in your day-to-day! I also did a ton of work to fix screenshooting on rotated displays. We were ignoring wl_surface::set_buffer_transform in a big way. Now that we're not doing that, your screenshots should like perfect every time! -

-Last but not least, the team has been making waves implementing multi-window in the Flutter toolkit. That's some really interesting and exciting work, so stay tuned for that if you're a Flutter developer! -

-That's all I got! I will make another post shortly, maybe once miracle v0.7.0 is out. Have a great rest of your summer/winter 🪐 -
