# NAME

labwc - a wayland stacking compositor

# SYNOPSIS

*labwc*  [options...]

# DESCRIPTION

Labwc is a wlroots-based stacking compositor for wayland.

It is light-weight and independent with a focus on simply stacking windows
well and rendering some window decorations. Where practicable it uses clients
for wall-paper, panels, screenshots and so on.

The compositor will exit or reload its configuration upon receiving SIGTERM
and SIGHUP respectively.  For example:

```
kill -s <signal> $LABWC_PID
killall -s <signal> labwc
```
