swayfx 0.1

SwayFX v0.1 is based on Sway v1.7

At long last, the initial release of SwayFX! We are dubbing this release version 0.1, as ideally, 1.0 will include all of the popular picom compositor effects. For now (as in this release), SwayFX contains rounded window corners, rounded borders, and rounded titlebars. SwayFX v0.1 also includes application saturation control, and support for treating the scratchpad as minimize.

Enjoy!

• William McKinnon

(I'd like to drop a big thanks to @ErikReider for helping to implement the rounded window borders, and for implementing the saturation control, as well as handling our build scripts)
