First light from Weston on Android
A couple of months ago, Collabora assigned me first to research and then make a proof of concept port of Wayland on Android. I had never even seen an Android before. Yesterday, Weston on Android achieved first light!
Improved appearance for the simplest Wayland client
Of the Wayland demo clients in the Weston repository, simple-shm is the simplest. All the related code is in that one file, and it interfaces directly with libwayland. It does not use GL or EGL, so it can be ran on systems where the EGL stack does not support the Wayland platform nor extensions. However, what it renders, is surprising:
