River, a dynamic tiling Wayland compositor inspired by dwm and bspwm.

River look interesting. Can you share a screenshot of your desktop?

[–] Ordoviz@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 years ago

Here's a screenshot. I don't use a statusbar, gaps or anything fancy, but river does offer these features.

The text editor is Kakoune, the color theme is gruvbox.

I'd like to try Sway with nwg-shell, but the latter is only available in its entirety on Arch for some reason.

i3 because it has the most users and support out of all the advanced tiling wms

[–] qrow@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I'm completely new to wms (i started using one this week) but river (and waybar) was simple enough that i was able to fully configure it and waybar to suit all my needs withing a day...

.1) ~~manger~~ ... manager
.2) ... if you want this :
~~I wish I could swap < Left Shift > and < Left Control > though…~~
.2a) remove last space after "though…"
.2b) add spaces as : < Left Shift >
