    Sea (like C) greeter for LightDM allows to create themes with web technologies, the same as web-greeter, nody-greeter and the outdated lightdm-webkit2-greeter. This project aims to be similar to the last one, as sea-greeter is made with webkit2 instead of chromium.

    Web Greeter is created with Python... which sometimes is slow. So, I wanted to re-create it with Node.js!

    Raw wayland greeter for greetd, to be run under sway or similar. Note that cage is currently not supported due to it lacking wlr-layer-shell-unstable support.
