## Running the Reference Compositor
wlroots comes with a reference compositor called rootston that demonstrates the
features of the library.
After building, run rootston from a terminal or VT with:
./build/rootston/rootston
Run windows on the compositor with the display variable set:
```bash
# run gtk apps like this
gnome-calculator --display=wayland-0
# run QT apps like this
qgit -platform wayland
# run X11 apps like this
DISPLAY=:1 firefox
```
