Wayfire, stacking wayland compositor, WM and DE now in galaxy repo

The stacking wayland compositor and window manager Wayfire is now in the galaxy repository, along with supporting applications. Wayfire is a is modular and wlroots based 3D compositor with substantial GL use, which can be reduced by removing related modules from its configuration.
With packages wf-shell, wf-panel and optionally some others, Wayfire can be expanded into a desktop environment including panel, launcher, tray and dock. Another panel like eg. waybar can also be used.

Applications:
wf-shell : wayfire intergration with wayland applications - provides wf-panel, wf-dock, wf-background and wayland-logout
wf-panel : panel with launcher and tray
wf-dock : dock
wf-background : background
wcm : Wayfire Configuration Manager GUI (not yet finished/complete) - provides wdisplays
python-wayfire : remote command access to monitoring and control wayfire
wayland-logout : wayland session logout
wdisplays : wayland multi display setup
wayfire-plugins-extra : extra, optional modules
wlogut : wayland logout menu
wofi : separate menu and command launcher for wayland
wlr-randr : wayland display setup
kanshi : dynamic wayland display setup
wlopm : wayland wlr output management (suspend display) - if not using wayfire's internal DPMS
mako: lightweight notification daemon for Wayland
slurp: Select a region in a Wayland compositor and print it to the standard output. Works well with grim.
grim: Grab images from any Wayland compositor which supports the screencopy protocol. Works well with slurp.
light: control backlights (and other hardware lights) on wayland
wlsunset: Day/night gamma adjustments for Wayland compositors supporting wlr-gamma-control-unstable-v1

I want to express my great gratitude not only to the developers of Artix Linux, but also to all those who maintain, compile, etc. programs. Without you, this distribution would not exist. Thank you!
