Description
- Electron version: any
- Operating system: Linux
Expected behavior
Latest Ubuntu comes with Wayland a default display server.
On embedded devices, wayland provides usually the best rendering performance, at least compared to X11 where the performance is usually pretty poor.
Actual behavior
Current linux / arm / arm64 binary releases are great but run pretty bad from my experience on embedded devices. They all link to libx11 / gtk which makes them unusable for wayland.
libGtk can be build with --wayland-backend and then electron can be built against it
I would really like electron team to consider providing prebuilt binaries usable with wayland, that would open a new range of possibilities, especially on embedded devices.
