This Qtile Wayland configuration was built using knowledge and code from the following excellent repositories. Without their work, the Waybar integration and Rofi menus would not have been possible.

The logic for bridging Qtile's workspace data to Waybar was heavily inspired by and adapted from stefur's configuration. The method of writing Pango-marked text to a temporary file (/tmp/qtile-groups.txt) and signaling Waybar via pkill -RTMIN+8 was the crucial workaround needed to make Waybar display Qtile workspaces correctly on Wayland.

The Rofi launcher and power menu scripts used in this setup were adapted from ahmad-shaban's Qtile configuration. While originally used for an X11 Qtile setup, the scripts translated perfectly to the Wayland environment with minor path adjustments.
