![]() ![]() Browser – only browsers are usually here.I used to have here my current IDE, file managers, and all other applications as this is my “default” workspace to work with. _NET_WM_ICON_NAME(UTF8_STRING) = "dpokusa"Īnd that’s it! How I have things organised? WM_PROTOCOLS(ATOM): protocols WM_DELETE_WINDOW, WM_TAKE_FOCUS, _NET_WM_PING, _NET_WM_SYNC_REQUEST Program specified minimum size: 357 by 146 WM_CLIENT_LEADER(WINDOW): window id # 0x2600001 _NET_WM_USER_TIME_WINDOW(WINDOW): window id # 0x2600004 _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE(ATOM) = _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_NORMAL Basic keyboard ~/configurations/configs/i3 ‹master›Ĭlient accepts input or input focus: True Download it, change and use it however you like. You can find all my configuration files related to i3 here. ![]() I broke a simple rule: one change at a time □ If you know lua well then you can try awesome, in other case I would suggest you to try i3 – it use very simple configuration files. Especially that awesome was my first tiling window manager. Back then I did not know lua so every change was a little bit difficult for me. However I found myself in situation when I did not extend my current desktop environment, because awesome is using LUA scripts for all configurations. Why i3WM and not other tiling windows manager? Basically after some time you will find out that you hardly rearrange anything on your desktop. Most powerful thing is that you can teach your WM to place tiles in exact manner that you like them to on particular workspaces. In tiling WM you will forget about alt-tab behaviour. In case of single-workspace systems (like all Ms Windows) you can have a loooong list under ALT-TAB shortcut. Moving windows around from one screen to another, from one workspace to another. Using classical window manager I was finding myself very often in reorganizing current desktop. This means that you can power up your window manager easily, by adding new shortcuts, modes or whole functions.

I know that these is possible in classical window manager, however tiling WMs “push you a little” to go this way. You can work in your IDE, ask some questions on skype/slack, do some operations in terminal and get back to source code without even thinking about using a mouse. This means that every action like moving “tiles”, changing current workspace, changing current layout, resizing, going fullscreen etc. Why should I consider switching to tiling WM? Designed for keyboard useĪll popular tiled WMs are designed to be operated by keyboard only (Of course you can use your mouse if you like :)). Some examples of tiling windows managers: Here you can see a couple of my workspaces: I have already mention i3wm in 4 top performance boosters for linux users post- you can find video showing i3wm features in general: In computing, a tiling window manager is a window manager with an organization of the screen into mutually non-overlapping frames, as opposed to the more popular approach of coordinate-based stacking of overlapping objects ( windows) that tries to fully emulate the desktop metaphor.
