Newbie to window manager, why use awesome over other dynamic wm ?
basic notification system and example server

Very new to Linux, how do you launch a program?
Most importantly, there are lines that define keybindings to start programs. I don't use qtile, but I think this example will help you figure things out. For instance, there is the # start specific apps section that explains that (with the given config) you have to press the mod key + n to start the browser or mod key + Enter to start the terminal.
- Get current screen?
-
Qtile Theme Switching Script
Declaration for each 'theme'. (See qtile-examples for how to separate qtile into multiple files.)

Why do people use functions in their configs?
I'm not completely dumbstruck, for example I can see that in this config the dev uses functions and hooks (idk what hooks are, sounds like a way to add event-driven functionality) to automatically set the window type to floating if the window name is equal to x.

All hail qtile extras (could be done without too though)
You can find some example configs at qtile-examples but, note, some of those configs are quite old.
