Same FIFO format, same scripts. Pixel-faithful 'wob' theme bundled. Migrate by editing one config file.
KDL scene files describe a small element tree (rect, text, image, bar) with bindings, expressions, and palette imports. Hot-reloaded on save.
JSON-line protocol over a Unix socket. Send (event, value, source, style, icon, …) in one structured payload — no positional parsing.
PipeWire, UPower, sysfs backlight, keyboard backlight — auto-discovered and supervised. Bring your own via the same protocol.
User-driven sends hot-swap; ambient updates queue politely. History keyed by (source, event) so distinct metrics never cross-contaminate.
wlr-layer-shell-v1, tiny-skia, cosmic-text, resvg. No X11, no GTK, no Qt. Works on Hyprland, Sway, KDE Plasma, river, Wayfire — anywhere wlr-layer-shell exists.
