Maui Shell
Maui Shell is a convergent shell for desktops, tablets, and phones.
Maui Shell is composed of two parts:
- Cask is the shell container and elements templates, such as panels, popups, cards etc.
- Zpace is the composer, which is the layout and places the windows or surfaces into the Cask container.

Build
Please check the Wiki for build instructions.
Running
Maui Shell can run as a window inside an X11 session, open a terminal and run cask
. There is a Wayland session too if you’d like to test the Maui Shell using a Wayland sesson.
To run un Cask in window mode, you can launch ‘cask -w,’ which will allow you to test different sizes to emulate tablet or phone form factors.
Using a different TTY is also possible to test Maui Shell; in this case, you would need to use the program ‘startcask-wayland’.
If you try it within another session, you can launch cask -l /tmp/cask.log
to generate a log file; this is useful if you want to report an issue later.
To ensure the input works correctly, you need to add your user to the input
group.
Eventually, Cask can run Weston and GTK3 apps.
Cask does not include an embedded X server yet, but it might be possible.
