Apologies for the noise.

I just realised that I forgot one line in the commit message:
  (sway-mode): New configuration record.

Best,

Thank you for the sway service!  Tried to convert my config and the resulted
code looks much clearer :)

Can `sway-configuration-bar' be optional?  In my case it's not used.

Thanks

+@cindex sway, Home Service
+@cindex sway, configuration
+The @code{(gnu home services sway)} module provides
+@code{home-sway-service-type}, a home service to configure sway in a
+declarative way.
+
+@quotation Note
+This home service only sets up the configuration file and profile
+packages for sway.  It does @i{not} start sway in any way.  If you want
+to do so, you might be interested in using
+@code{greetd-wlgreet-sway-session} instead.
+
+The function @code{sway-configuration->file} defined below can be used
+to provide the value for the @code{sway-configuration} field of
+@code{greetd-wlgreet-sway-session}.
+@end quotation
+
+@defvar sway-configuration->file
+This function takes a @code{sway-configuration} record (defined below),
+and returns a file-like object represented the serialized configuration.
+@end defvar
+
+@defvar home-sway-service-type
+This is a home service type to set up Sway.  It takes care of:
+@itemize
+@item
+providing a @file{~/.config/sway/config} file,
+@item
+adding sway-related packages to your profile.
+@end itemize
+
+Here is an example of a service and its configuration that you could add
+to the @code{services} field of your @code{home-environment}:
+
+@lisp
+(service home-sway-service-type
+         (sway-configuration
+          (gestures
+           '((swipe:3:down . "move to scratchpad")
+             (swipe:3:up   . "scratchpad show")))
+          (outputs
+           (list (sway-output
+                  (identifier '*)
+                  (bg (file-append guix-backgrounds
+                     "\
+/share/backgrounds/guix/guix-checkered-16-9.svg")))))))
+@end lisp
+
+The above example describes a sway configuration in which
+@itemize
+@item
+all monitors use a particular wallpaper whose @file{.svg} is provided by
+the @code{guix-background} package;
+@item
+swiping down (resp.@: up) with three fingers moves the active window to
+the scratchpad (resp.@: shows/hides the scratchpad).
+@end itemize
+@end defvar
+
+@deftp {Data Type} sway-configuration
+This configuration record describes the sway configuration
+(see@ @cite{sway(5)}).  Available fields are:
+
+@table @asis
+@item @code{variables} (default: @code{%sway-default-variables})
+The value of this field is an association list in which keys are symbols
+and values are strings or G-expressions (@pxref{G-Expressions}).
+
+Example: @code{'(mod . "Mod4")}.
+
+@item @code{keybindings} (default: @code{%sway-default-keybindings})
+This field describes keybindings for the @emph{default} mode.  As above,
+the value is an association list: keys are symbols and values are either
+strings, G-expressions or file-append objects.
+
+Examples using:
+@itemize
+@item
+a string: @code{'($mod+Return . "exec $term")}
+@item
+a G-exp: @code{`($mod+t . ,#~(string-append #$st "/bin/st"))}
+@item
+a file-append: @code{`($mod+t . ,(file-append st "/bin/st"))}
+@end itemize
+
+@item @code{gestures} (default: @code{%sway-default-gestures})
+Similar to the previous field, but for finger-gestures.
+
+The following snippet allows to navigate through workspaces by swiping
+right and left with three fingers:
+@lisp
+'((swipe:3:right . "workspace next_on_output")
+  (swipe:3:left  . "workspace prev_on_output"))
+@end lisp
+
+@item @code{packages} (default: @code{%sway-default-packages})
+This field describes a list of packages to add to the user profile.
+
+@item @code{inputs} (default: @code{(list (sway-input))})
+List of @code{sway-input} configuration records.
+
+@item @code{outputs} (default: @code{'()})
+List of @code{sway-output} configuration records.
+
+@item @code{bar} (default: @code{(sway-bar)})
+Bar configuration.
+
+@item @code{modes} (default: @code{'()})
+Optional list of @code{sway-mode} records (described below).
+
+@item @code{always-execs} (default: @code{'()})
+Programs to execute at startup time @i{and} after every configuration
+reload.  The value of this field is a list of strings or G-expressions.
+
+@item @code{execs} (default: @code{%sway-default-execs})
+Programs to execute at startup time.  The value of this field is a list
+of strings or  G-expressions.
+
+The default value, @code{%sway-default-execs}, executes @code{swayidle}
+in order to lock the screen after 5@ minutes of inactivity (displaying a
+background distributed with Sway) and turn of the screen after
+10@ minutes of inactivity.
+
+@item @code{extra-content} (default: @code{'()})
+Lines to add to the configuration file.  The value of this field is a
+list of strings or G-expressions.
+@end table
+@end deftp
+
+@deftp {Data Type} sway-input
+@code{sway-input} records describe input blocks
+(see@ @cite{sway-input(5)}).  Available fields are:
+
+@table @asis
+@item @code{identifier} (default: @code{'*})
+Identifier of the input.  The field accepts symbols and strings.  If a
+string is used, it will be quoted in the generated configuration file.
+
+@item @code{xkb-layout} (optional)
+Keyboard specific option.  Comma-separated keyboard layout(s) to use.
+
+@item @code{xkb-model} (optional)
+Keyboard specific option.  String providing the keyboard model.

+
+@item @code{extra-content} (default: @code{'()})
+Lines to add to the input block.  The value of this field is a list of
+strings.
+@end table
+
+For example, the following snippet makes all keyboards use a french
+layout, in which @kbd{capslock} has been remaped to @kbd{ctrl}:
+@lisp
+(sway-input (identifier "type:keyboard")
+            (xkb-layout "fr")
+            (xkb-options '("ctrl:nocaps")))
+@end lisp
+@end deftp
+
+@deftp {Data Type} sway-output
+@code{sway-output} records describe sway outputs
+(see@ @cite{sway-output(5)}).  Available fields are:
+
+@table @asis
+@item @code{identifier} (default: @code{'*})

+@code{identifier} is a symbol, it is inserted as is; if it is a string,
+it will be quoted in the configuration file.
+
+@item @code{resolution} (optional)
+This string defines the resolution of the monitor.
+
+@item @code{position} (optional)
