dwm is a dynamic window manager for X that manages windows in tiled, monocle and floating layouts, which can be applied dynamically. Windows are grouped by tags, and each screen contains a small status bar showing tags, layout and window information. It is customized by editing its source code and is distributed as a single binary.
Hyprland is a dynamic tiling Wayland compositor. It provides Wayland features, dynamic tiling, animations, plugins and multiple fine-tuneable layouts. It offers live reloading configuration and socket-based IPC. Installation is available for Arch, NixOS, FreeBSD and openSUSE.
