On this page, we're collecting tips and tricks to make Plasma work on Wayland:
Build instructions
We recommend following this guide to install the Wayland stack, including the QtWayland module
Generic, but more detailed build instructions for Wayland / Weston, including underlying stack can be found at: http://wayland.freedesktop.org/building.html
Create a wl-env script somewhere in your $PATH, looking like this (adjust WLD to your wayland installation path):
WLD=/home/sebas/kf5/wayland/install
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$WLD/lib
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$WLD/lib/pkgconfig/:$WLD/share/pkgconfig/
ACLOCAL="aclocal -I $WLD/share/aclocal"
export YACC=bison
export WLD LD_LIBRARY_PATH PKG_CONFIG_PATH ACLOCAL YACC
if test -z "${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}"; then
export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/tmp/${UID}-runtime-dir
if ! test -d "${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}"; then
mkdir "${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}"
chmod 0700 "${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}"

Running KF5 applications under Wayland
Inside an existing X session:
weston
starts a new window under your X server with Weston running inside it.
From a hard console / virtual terminal:
export $(dbus-launch) weston-launch kwrite -platform wayland
