 Wayland protocol extensions for Hyprland.
 
 This repository exists in an effort to bridge the gap between Hyprland and KDE/Gnome's functionality,

 ## Contributing
+
 Adding new protocols is *discouraged*, as most things you think of can already be done one way or another.
 However, if the protocol has a good reason to be, and you have an impl ready, feel free to make a PR.
 We're always up for a discussion to improve things!

 Fixing typos / adding explanations to existing protocols - welcome.
 
 Adding functionality to protocols / new revisions - welcome, if accompanied with a reason and an impl.
