## Running a nested instance
-It is possible to run gnome-shell as "nested" instance in a window.
+It is possible to run gnome-shell as nested instance using Devkit.
The `run-gnome-shell` script will automatically do that when run from
a graphical session, or you can run the following command:
```sh
-$ WAYLAND_DISPLAY=shell-test-1 dbus-run-session \
- gnome-shell --wayland-display=shell-test-1 --nested
+$ dbus-run-session gnome-shell --wayland --devkit
```
-There are limitations to the nested instance, such as keyboard shortcuts
-usually not getting to the nested compositor.
-
-In order to still bring up the [Looking Glass][lg] debugger, you can
-use an [extension][lg-button] as workaround.

Sometimes it's necessary to run the "native backend", on real display hardware.
