I would like to write a basic hardware-accelerated window manager, so I've been looking for some documentation on how to get started, but I've only managed to find this tutorial, which uses an outdated version of Clutter and won't build with any version currently available. Are there any other good resources for how to do this, or alternatively, a really bare-bones compositing WM to look at the source of?
There are two parts in your question: 1) How to write WM 2) how to write composite manager
Some links to help understand part two (in addition to xcompmgr source):
