Update: If your next session after upgrading looks ugly; it may just be that picom (formerly compton) is not running. I have removed it from the gnome session file. The compositor has always been an optional thing, which I often find myself killing to free more resources.
I have newly included an openbox autostart
config file that should initiate picom if it is installed.
Still on the fence about downgrading picom from a dependency to an optdepends.

Pantheon Lite is a fork of elementary OS's Pantheon DE, replacing their gala window manager and compositor with openbox and picom, as well as wingpanel with wingpanel-standalone (autohide; dropped gala dependent features).
See a brief demonstration on YouTube.
My custom openbox rc, menu, and autostart configurations are included in the package, but not installed by default (they may be copied to
~/.config/openbox/
).Also, relevant dotfiles.
In order to clean-chroot build this package, you will first need to (clean-chroot) build it's AUR dependencies: pantheon-workarounds and wingpanel-standalone-git; then preinstall them when building, such as:
