Sway is a tiling Wayland compositor described as a drop-in replacement for the i3 window manager for X11, working with existing i3 configuration and supporting most of i3's features. It is installed with the sway package on Arch Linux; proprietary graphics drivers, including NVIDIA, are not supported, though sway works after NVIDIA driver version 495 if kernel mode setting is enabled and sway runs with --unsupported-gpu.
i3 is a tiling window manager written from scratch for GNU/Linux and BSD operating systems. Its source code is free and open source under the BSD license, and it is primarily targeted at advanced users and developers. The project uses libxcb instead of Xlib, supports Xinerama multi-monitor setups, and arranges windows with a tree structure. It also provides an IPC interface for other programs and documents its internal workings.
xmonad is a dynamically tiling X11 window manager written and configured in Haskell. It automates arranging windows and provides keyboard-focused window management. The project offers an extension library, documentation, and support channels for configuration.
Qtile is a full-featured, hackable tiling window manager written and configured in Python. It defines key bindings, groups, layouts and widgets such as a bar and prompt in its configuration, and supports switching virtual terminals on Wayland.
1Piece is a macOS utility that bundles features intended to improve usability of the Mac. It includes Window List for showing open windows, Hot Corners for switching Spaces or the active window, and a Window Manager for resizing and repositioning windows using hot keys, menus, or snapping.
Quickshell is a toolkit for building status bars, widgets, lockscreens and other desktop components using QtQuick, usable alongside a Wayland compositor or window manager. It is configured in QML, loads changes as they are saved, and ships integrations including networking, notifications, system tray and Pipewire modules.
A single-file C fetch tool inspired by donut.c that renders a distro logo as a rotating 3D relief with Blinn-Phong shading while system info updates in real time. It auto-detects the distro logo from fastfetch or accepts a specified or custom logo. System info is gathered natively without fastfetch or neofetch.
