I can't speak to the other DEs, but it doesn't work out of the box on KDE because by default KDE uses A-M-s for an accessibility setting. You can turn that off in the KDE system settings and then warpd should work fine.

Wayland support is currently confined to wlroots based compositors like sway and hyprland, though it should work on most X based DEs. Feel free to file issues for specific DEs that you think should work so they can be evaluated. It is worth noting that warpd is currently in maintenance mode, and efforts are being directed towards porting most of its useful functionality to keyd, which uses a lower level input mechanism and should support a larger number of environments.
