Sway 1.5 contains 284 changes from 78 contributors. This release introduces a lot of new features, but also contains numerous bug fixes.
The recommended wlroots version to use with this release is 0.11.0.

command, and can be used with WayVNC - Input method editors (IME) are now supported via the input-method and
text-input protocols - Adaptive synchronization (aka. variable refresh rate, VRR) can be enabled
to reduce stuttering in games - Support for the viewporter protocol, allowing older X11 games to work
better and improve performance - Allow virtualization and remote desktop software to inhibit keyboard
shortcuts - Support for the wlr-foreign-toplevel-management protocol, allowing
custom docks and window switchers

sway 1.4
sway 1.4 contains 190 changes from 52 contributors. Highlights include:
- Support for VNC via wayvnc. The wlroots RDP backend has been removed.
- Partial support for the MATE panel
- Configurable input latency controls, see
max_render_time
insway(5)
andsway-output(5)
- Keyboard grouping (useful for certain niche keyboard designs)
- Support for xdg-shell v6 unstable has been removed
The recommended terminal emulator in the default configuration file is now alacritty.
Note: due to a release error, we skipped version 1.3.
