The Xfce project is creating a new Wayland compositor named Xfwl4 to support Wayland sessions in its lightweight desktop environment. This tool will complement the existing Xfwm4 window manager, enabling seamless transitions between X11 and Wayland. Led by developer Brian Tarricone, the compositor aims for inclusion in the upcoming Xfce 4.22 release in 2026.
