 **Build Strategy**:
 
-- All dependencies (wayland, wlroots, scenefx) are built from their source repositories
-- Uses `meson subprojects download` before each meson setup to fetch required subprojects
-- Allows meson wrap mode for automatic subproject handling (no --wrap-mode=nodownload)

+- Uses `meson subprojects download` before each meson setup to fetch required

 **Dependencies**:
 
 - Ubuntu latest runner
 - Meson build system
 - Ninja build tool
