> I miss Compiz wobbly windows. They were cool. Last I checked, Kwin still had that functionnality.

Ah cool. I miss them because I jumped off Linux and switched to OSX/macOS for a few years and then moved to Windows. That said, I just found https://www.stardock.com/products/windowfx/ https://www.stardock.com/products/windowfx/

  For bonus points, Arcan & Durden are a lot more hackable than Xorg & Beryl :-)

    at the very least, they'll have to work -hard- to get it as easy to hack as https://github.com/letoram/durden/blob/master/durden/tools/flair/cloth.lua https://github.com/letoram/durden/blob/master/durden/tools/f... :-)

      Is this using LuaJIT or just plain Lua? Because I get the impression this (not-C, not-Rust, not-stereotypically-fast) code is what's running at 60(?)fps, doing the actual deformation animation. Nice.

        Both are supported, but it's not particularly heavy - it's only running at a monotonic clock of 25Hz (decoupled from display updates and deliberately chosen to not be evenly divisible with 60Hz to pinpoint animation issues). Alas, the improvement that should really be made is to encode both n and n+1 in the same update and interpolate in the vertex shader, not hard here but I was lazy..

Wobbly windows are definitely available with Kwin 5.13.5 (September 2018). I love that effect too, so it is always enabled on my PC :-)

I think most compositing window managers do, having adopted a lot of plugins from Compiz and Beryl.
