# WlxOverlay-S
- [WlxOverlay-S GitHub repository](https://github.com/galister/wlx-overlay-s)
WlxOverlay-S is a tool that lets users interact with their X11 or Wayland desktop from inside VR.
It supports a vast variety of desktop environments, and comes with a fully customizable keyboard and watch.
WlxOverlay-S also includes a playspace mover and can act like your home environment (void) when launched as the first app in Monado/WiVRn.
Please take a look at the GitHub Readme for a comprehensive guide.
## WayVR
WayVR acts as a bridge between Wayland applications and WlxOverlay-S panels, allowing you to display your applications within a VR environment. Internally, WayVR utilizes Smithay to run a Wayland compositor.
Read more about setup/usage in the [WayVR README](https://github.com/galister/wlx-overlay-s/tree/main/contrib/wayvr).
## WayVR-Dashboard
WayVR Dashboard is a work-in-progress overlay application (in the form of a WlxOverlay-S plugin) for launching various applications and games directly into a VR desktop environment.
For more details, read the [WayVR-Dashboard README](https://github.com/olekolek1000/wayvr-dashboard/).
