COSMIC is a Wayland desktop environment for Linux that is written in Rust with Smithay and Iced. COSMIC applications are developed with the libcosmic platform toolkit, which is based on iced. They are cross-platform and supported on Windows, Mac, and Redox OS in addition to Linux.

As COSMIC nears its alpha release in Q1 of 2024, we have thus far developed a terminal, file manager, and text editor for our desktop environment within the last few months.

See cosmic-epoch for instructions on building and installing COSMIC.

Well, I have avoided Nvidia for 20 years due to driver issues on Linux, so I would be surprised if you had fixed them all :) But, it sound really promising, looking forward to try it out!

NVIDIA believes they'll have the Vulkan on Wayland issue fixed in the 550 driver that they are planning to release early this year. Someone's working on a fix in wgpu that happens to also boost performance for every driver in demos.
