Ark (Runtime)
=============

Ark is a long-running Wayland compositor runtime with a hot-reloadable soul
interface.

Responsibilities
----------------

- Owns the Wayland display lifecycle and wlroots setup.
- Loads a soul shared object (`.so`) at runtime and routes input/surface events to it.
- Supports hot-reloading the soul without restarting the compositor.

Soul interface
--------------

The runtime defines a C ABI that souls must implement (load/start/teardown,
event handlers, and optional state marshal/unmarshal for hot reload). The ABI is
defined in:

- `ark/include/soul.h`

Souls should include:

- `ark/include/soul_interface.h`

Key files
---------

- `ark/src/wl.c`: compositor setup + event loop + soul callbacks.
- `ark/src/soul.c`: dynamic loading, lifecycle, and hot-reload logic.
- `ark/include/soul.h`: C ABI the soul must implement.

Building
--------

Ark is built via the top-level CMake project:

```sh
cmake -S .. -B ../build
cmake --build ../build --target ark
```

Running
-------

Use the top-level `run` target (builds the bundled soul and launches Ark):

```sh
cmake --build ../build --target run
```
