No...
The Wayland compositor seeks to "cut out the middle-man" so to speak. By compositing with direct communication between the kernel and the modules, it seeks to speed up compositing.
It is sound in principle.
But has so far, been short on results.

Do you have all night to talk about it lol?, basically its the desktop compositor, or engine if you will like x11, it works like a translator for graphics between the kernel and hardware and the rest of the desktop environment.

I haven't ever thought in that in windows how that work, what is the equivalent for that in windows?
it seem I need to read about compsitor first I have read that article in wikipedia, it seem good for me:
A compositing window manager , or compositoris a window manager that provides applications with an off-screen buffer for each window
The window manager composites the window buffers into an image representing the screen and writes the result into the display memory
In windows, its is dwm.exe service - Desktop Windows Management
