WARNING: This project is very much a work in progress. I have provided a rough roadmap in the timeline section. Use at your own risk.
miracle
miracle is a Mir-based, Wayland desktop environment inspired by modern IDEs. The window manager intends to provide a typical tiling window management experience (akin to i3 or sway). The shell focuses on usability for programmers by being extendable and providing a JetBrains-inspried interface. While window managers like i3 and sway are simple but barebones, miracle will provide a heavier out-of-the-box-solution that is geared towards making the life of the average programmer happy and productive. If you like the lightweight nature of other IDEs, then this one might not be for you. But if you want your desktop environment to provide a host of useful facilities at your fingertips, then look no futher!
While miracle intends to be a full desktop environment, the tiling window management facilities will always be provided as a standalone option so that you might use your own shell if you like.
