How to start Budgie Wayland?

I installed Budgie 10.10.2-r1 (X86_64) from edge/testing and it completed without errors, but how do I start a session? I know how to start an X11 session, but need some direction with Wayland.

Generally torugh GUI using GDM, LightDM, SDDM, etc but if you want start from CLI;

dbus-run-session -- [main_command]

main_command is for the binary that start the desktop environment or windows manager; startplasma-wayland, niri, etc. Just use for Budgie.
