Miracle-WM 0.3.5 was released this weekend as the newest step forward for this Mir-based window manager / Wayland compositor developed by a Canonical engineer. Miracle-WM continues being polished ahead of the upcoming Fedora Miracle Spin debuting as part of Fedora 41.

Miracle-WM 0.3.5 is mostly about getting out more bug fixes in time for the Fedora Miracle spin's debut F41 release. There are fixes around XWayland handling, an issue where shell components were not properly gaining focus, and bugs with loading the default configuration. There is also now a "miraclemsg" sub-project as a drop-in replacement to the "swaymsg" for sending messages to the running instance of the compositor over the IPC socket.

Miracle-WM 0.3.5 also introduces optional systemd integration. With the "-DSYSTEMD_INTEGRATION" CMake build option, Miracle-WM can integrate with systemd on boot-up.
