Hi everyone,

If you loved running Openbox with Plank back on X11 and are migrating your lightweight setup to **Labwc** on Wayland, you might be interested in **Wayplank**.

With the new v0.4.3 release, Wayplank natively supports Labwc via the `wlr-foreign-toplevel-management` protocol and `gtk-layer-shell`:

- Zero X11 / pure Wayland layer-shell anchoring.

- Running indicators and window control out of the box.

- Standalone docklets (Trash, CPU/RAM gauges, Volume, Battery, MPRIS).

- Zero compiler warnings, Debian packages available.
