I think is is like xrandr for gnome, so that it works on Wayland too.
It is a command line tool for configuring your displays, including multi monitor setups. e.g. you can tell it that display 2 is 'right of' display 1.
All of this is probably already in the displays UI. But this exposes it in a utility.
...But I could have made some of that up.
Nah man come on it's real ๐คฃ
Anyway that's nice! I can see how it could be useful to create scripts to automatically set different configurations based on your setup, e.g. you have one script for when you're working with your monitor on the right, one for when you're connecting it to a tv and want to duplicate your screen, etc...
