Installation

• Install (wayfire-plugins-extra)[https://github.com/WayfireWM/wayfire-plugins-extra]
• Build & install the plugin and wf-prop: meson build && ninja -C build && sudo meson install -C build
• Enable glib-main-loop and dbus_interface in your wayfire.ini

If one of the plugins isn't loaded (check wayfire's debug output), make sure the plugin was installed to the correct path.

Coding style

• uncrustify.ini in the repo
• follow the style used
• using 'auto' is strongly discouraged
