Description

@iki

Feature Description

Portable release archives allow many use cases, e.g.:

  • to make Wayland part of bootable USB's

  • to install Wayland and keep it updated using 3rd party tools, like mise-en-place:

    mise use -g github:ferroxlabs/wayland
    
    # Alternatively use the latest stable release without security minimum age threshold
    mise use -g "github:ferroxlabs/wayland[install_before=0d]@latest"
    
    # Alternatively use the latest release including pre-releases
    # and without security minimum age threshold
    mise use -g "github:ferroxlabs/wayland[prerelease=true,install_before=0d]@latest"

Problem Statement

Current installation needs to run Wayland Setup.

Proposed Solution

Make installation possible also just by unpacking a portable archive.
