  • Awesome WM customizer/configurator

    u/BaigGam3rss I still have some work to do to make my own widgets but you probably start with the documentation [1][2]. And then look at some other projects that use Awesome API to build widgets (ex: [3][4][5][6][7]).
  • Network manager?

  • Newbie to window manager, why use awesome over other dynamic wm ?
    6 projects | /r/awesomewm | 20 Dec 2022
    Awesome is very different from other window managers...It's a framework window manager! Through its API you can create widgets that are not possible in other WMs (ex: [1],[2],[3].[4]). Furthermore, AwesomeWM can be used as a tiling window managers and as a stacking window managers (like XFCE).

    KwesomeDE - as well as implementing what seems like his own animations and reinventing a few more wheels than I think will practically ever work outside his own system, though thoroughly interesting.

  • Round corners for notifications and layout
    1 project | /r/awesomewm | 7 Dec 2023
    Yes, I used that before I tried to have a notification center. I grabbed this code from a unixporn master (probably https://github.com/rxyhn/yoru), which does not use naughty config. I will tried later to have a notification center using naughty config, if that may work. Thanks!

    I've been modifying this script so that it uses grim and slurp to work on wayland. Now I've hit the road block. The output of the program (After modification) is:
