How to test wayland on armbian?

Hello, I would like to tinker with a wayland-based desktop environment.

What are the basics I need to know and what are the steps to setup it on armbian?

 

Thanks in advance

Your first best bet would be to try using weston. If weston doesn't work, you'll to need to fix this first.

 

Also know that, a lot of Wayland compositors have their own way to work with the DRM/OpenGL ES stack and... it tends to play badly with embedded systems due to some "weird" mechanisms for initializing the graphic stack. So if a wayland compositor (beside weston which tends to have some 'state of art' way of initializing the graphic stack) doesn't work, it doesn't mean that others won't.
