The installer provided in this repository pulls all the necessary dependencies, and preconfigures 4 desktop styles for you to choose from. Each of them you can modify freely from the nwg-shell-config GUI. Or you may choose the 'Custom' preset to experiment with.

Support for other WMs
This project is primarily aimed at sway. Some parts may work on other wlroots-based compositors. Some may even work on X11, but it's not the primary objective. Feel free to submit addons / improvements, but keep in mind that all the stuff must work on sway, and may or may not work elsewhere.
Pull requests adding support for non-sway stuff
are welcome.
Feature requests like "add <place_your_wm_here> support"
go to /dev/null.
Contributions
If you like the idea of the GTK shell for sway, feel free to submit your improvements, new modules, plugins or standalone programs. Preferred languages are python and Go.
Important: before you open a PR containing major changes to already existing programs, please (PLEASE!) open an issue to discuss what you're going to do.
Feedback
Bug reports and ideas are more than welcome. Please remember, however, that at this stage, most part of the shell is being developed by a single hobbyist, who uses Arch Linux. Some issues specific to other environment, e.g. Debian, FreeBSD, are out of my range and need some Community commitment.
Resources
The project logo has been created by edskeye. You'll find the basic svg file in the resources repository. If you like the logo, you may also like nwg-shell wallpapers. The uglier ones were designed by me, and the prettier ones by @badkarma. ;)
