a minimalistic X window manager based on tinywm, inspired by qtile.

Demo

prerequisites

you should have xmodmap installed

design goals and features

• kiss: only window management (no taskbar, system tray, ...), complex stuff should be done using other programs (rofi, ...)
• configuration as code (like qtile, dwm)
• tiled by default (Binary space partitioning)
• supports workspaces
• two implementations: python and rust
• single file (python: ~200 LoC, rust: ~500 LoC)

using it

You should generate your binary based on the crate (see src/main.rs) for an example.

put in your .xinitrc

shell exec /path/to/umberwm mod4
