We recently assisted a customer who wanted to upgrade their system from X11 to Wayland, however they used CEF (Chromium Embedded Framework) as a runtime for web applications and CEF was not Wayland-ready. New patches are now available, enabling the use of CEF on Wayland and X11 through the Mus/Ozone infrastructure that is to become Chromium’s streamlined future.
