'''X.Org Server''' is the [[Free and open-source software|free and open-source]] implementation of the [[X Window System]] (X11) [[display server]] stewarded by the [[X.Org Foundation]].
Implementations of the client-side [[X Window System]] protocol exist in the form of ''X11 libraries'', which serve as helpful APIs for communicating with the X server.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.x.org/wiki/guide/xlib-and-xcb/#:~:text=At,server.|title=Xlib and XCB}}</ref> Two such major X libraries exist for X11. The first of these libraries was [[Xlib]], the original C language X11 API,<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.x.org/wiki/guide/xlib-and-xcb/#:~:text=The%20original,%22Xlib%22.|title=Xlib and XCB}}</ref> but another C language X library, [[XCB]], was created later in 2001.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.x.org/wiki/guide/xlib-and-xcb/#:~:text=After%20many,XCB.|title=Xlib and XCB}}</ref> Other smaller X libraries exist, both as interfaces for [[Xlib]] and [[XCB]] in other languages, and as smaller standalone X libraries.{{citation needed|date=August 2022}}
The services with which the X.Org Foundation supports X Server include the packaging of the releases; certification (for a fee); evaluation of improvements to the code; developing the web site, and handling the distribution of monetary donations.{{citation needed|date=September 2011}} The releases are coded, documented, and packaged by global [[developer (software)|developer]]s.{{clarify|what is a global developer?|date=January 2012}}

Most drivers implement acceleration using the XAA module. XAA is on by default, though acceleration of individual functions can be switched off as needed in the server configuration file (<

Glamor is a generic, hardware independent, 2D acceleration driver for the X server that translates the X render primitives into [[OpenGL]] operations, taking advantage of any existing 3D OpenGL drivers.<ref>{{cite web|title=What is Glamor?|url=http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/Glamor/|publisher=FreeDesktop.org|access-date=10 February 2014}}</ref> In this way, it is functionally similar to Quartz Extreme and QuartzGL (2D performance acceleration) for Apple [[Quartz Compositor]].
The ultimate goal of GLAMOR is to obsolete and replace all the DDX 2D graphics device drivers and acceleration architectures, thereby avoiding the need to write X 2D specific drivers for every supported graphic chipset.<ref>{{cite web|last=Anholt|first=Eric|title=Building 2D rendering acceleration with OpenGL|url=http://mirror.linux.org.au/linux.conf.au/2014/Wednesday/52-Building_2D_rendering_acceleration_with_OpenGL_-_Eric_Anholt.mp4|publisher=[[linux.conf.au]]

The modern [[X.Org Foundation]] came into being in 2004 when the body that oversaw X standards and published the official reference implementation joined forces with former [[XFree86]] developers.<ref>{{cite web|last=Coopersmith|first=Alan|title=The difference between Xorg and XFree86|url=https://blogs.oracle.com/solaris/the-difference-between-xorg-and-xfree86-v2|date=28 May 2004|access-date=17 September 2018}}</ref> X11R6.7.0, the first version of the X.Org Server, was [[Fork (software development)|fork]]ed from XFree86 4.4 RC2.<ref name="announceX11R6.7" /> The immediate reason for the fork was a disagreement with the new license for the final release version of XFree86 4.4, but several disagreements among the contributors surfaced prior to the split. Many of the previous XFree86 developers have joined the X.Org Server project.
In 2005, a great effort was put in the modularization of the X.Org server source code,<ref>{{cite web|title=X.Org Foundation Modularization Working Group|url=http://www.x.org/wiki/ModularizationWorkingGroup/|publisher=X.Org Foundation|access-date=6 February 2014}}</ref> resulting in a dual release by the end of the year. The X11R7.0.0 release added a new modular build system based on the [[GNU Autotools]], while X11R6.9.0 kept the old [[imake]] build system, both releases sharing the same codebase. Since then the X11R6.9 branch is maintained frozen and all the ongoing development is done to the modular branch. The new build system also brought the use of dlloader standard [[dynamic linker]] to load plugins and drivers, deprecating the old own method. As a consequence of the modularization, the X11 binaries were moving out of their own <
In June 2006, another effort was done to move the X.Org server source codebase from [[Concurrent Versions System|CVS]] to [[Git (software)|git]].<ref>{{cite web|last=Høgsberg|first=Kristian|title=Doing git migration now|date=July 2006 |url=http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg/2006-June/016439.html|access-date=6 February 2014}}</ref> Both efforts had the long-term goal of bringing new developers to the project. In the words of Alan Coopersmith:<ref>{{cite web|last=Coopersmith|first=Alan|title=Some times it's a book sprint, other times it's a marathon|url=https://blogs.oracle.com/solaris/some-times-its-a-book-sprint%2c-other-times-its-a-marathon-v2|access-date=12 January 2019}}</ref>
{{quote|Some of our efforts here have been technological - one of the driving efforts of the conversions from Imake to automake and from CVS to git was to make use of tools developers would already be familiar and productive with from other projects. The Modularization project, which broke up X.Org from one giant tree into over 200 small ones, had the goal of making it possible to fix a bug in a single library or driver without having to download and build many megabytes of software & fonts that were not being changed.}}
