Documentation

The man pages are usually the best place to go as community support with swaywm are limited, except for asking your questions on reddit or the #sway IRC channel, there are very few forms online detailing issues that users have had and how to fix them. This may be a good thing though, as it forces you to get used to reading documentation and troubleshooting for yourself.

Wacom drawing tablets

Wacom tablets work in sway, though you need to compile the driver from source as there are some current issues with the version in the arch repositories for some reason.
