Otto preview

Otto is a free, open-source Wayland compositor and window manager built in Rust, focused on smooth animations, gestures and spatial window interaction rather than just tiling mechanics, with a top bar, dock and file browsing built in. It's aimed at Linux users who want a Wayland desktop with the kind of animation polish and gesture feel usually associated with commercial desktop operating systems.
