There are many different window managers and desktop environments which can provide a decent experience. Wayfire is a functional, relatively lightweight and good looking wayland window manager and will be used for this install.
To install a barebones Wayfire use:
# xbps-install -Sy wayfire
To be able to configure Wayfire and have a gtk theme install:
# xbps-install -Sy wf-shell wcm dconf-editor plata-theme papirus-icon-theme
Wayfire can be configured by editing .config/wayfire.ini.
$ cp {config-files-repo}/wayfire/wayfire.ini .config/
To use the gtk theme. Configure it with dconf-editor under org.gnome.desktop.interface.gtk-theme and for icons under org.gnome.desktop.interface.icon-theme. If these directories do not exist, than that possibly means that a gtk application has not yet ran on the system.
A custom bash script may be created in /usr/local/bin. That exports all the essential environment variables for the session.
# cp -r {config-files-repo}/wayfire/wayfire-run /usr/local/bin/
