Niri is a scrollable-tiling Wayland compositor. Windows are arranged in columns on an infinite strip going to the right. Opening a new window never causes existing windows to resize.

As you may have noticed, niri now lives in a GitHub org rather than my ( @YaLTeR ) personal account.

The primary reason was the ability to give out issue triage permissions: I'd like to give a massive thanks to @Sempyos for triaging all of our issues and pull requests, answering many, many questions, and helping people diagnose their problems with niri.

We've also moved a few niri-adjacent projects to the GitHub org, like the awesome-niri list of related projects maintained by @Vortriz and a new artwork repo by @bluelinden and @HumpityDumpityDumber —two of the creators of our project logo. In the artwork repo, you can find a badge and several wallpapers , including two stunning 3D works created by @Duncan-Rose in Blender:

The main niri repo also flew past 20,000 stars in February!…
