Scroll is a Wayland compositor based on sway. Instead of fitting every window onto the screen, it arranges windows in a strip that scrolls sideways, the layout made popular by PaperWM.
Because it is a sway fork, it suits people who already know sway's configuration and want to try a scrolling tiling layout without moving to a completely different compositor.
Strengths
- Scrolling layout that does not squeeze windows
- Builds on familiar sway configuration
Limitations
- A full compositor, not an add-on to an existing desktop
- Smaller project than sway itself
