[Question] Does it rely on X or Wayland?

Currently utopia is backend agnostic, it needs to be manually plumbed to either X or Wayland afterwards. We have some experiments plumbing utopia and pangolin to Wayland but they are not ready to share yet. If there's any interest I could share some more specific examples of sorts. Hopefully that answers your question and other doubts you could have had 🙂

Yes, I'm interested as hell! (sorry for the wording)
I would even like to use this custom Wayland implementation: https://github.com/Smithay/wayland-rs
Thank you in advance

This is one thing we're looking at:

Yea as Lars mentioned, that is one project we're watching out for embedder implementation. At a conceptual level we need a flutter Linux embedder that runs both the shell app and the Wayland instance, it's the only sane way to have the flutter app be the main view without weird hacks like we were exploring before. Once we have this hybrid embedder running platform methods are used to communicate from flutter to Wayland and viceversa. This is the exact plumbing that needs to be done, utopia exposes some event based apis that can detect some actions on utopia and report natively to Wayland.
