Cosmic Desktop: Hammering Out New Cosmic Features
What level are you interested in scripting? In KDE Plasma you can interact with the desktop UI via JS: https://develop.kde.org/docs/plasma/scripting/
And then for something more sophisticated there are extensions like https://github.com/Bismuth-Forge/bismuth.
It does all feel a little disorganized/wild-west-y compared to say, a .vimrc with a list of plugins and bindings, which is something that makes a system like Nix (or a fully containerized DE of some kind) appealing

Hyprland Crash Course
It had, but they are all dead until ported to the new kde 6.
https://github.com/Bismuth-Forge/bismuth/issues/471#issuecom...
This is what I used. I found no good replacement for it and that is what made me switch to hyprland.

one thing i would totally recommend for kde is bismuth https://github.com/Bismuth-Forge/bismuth/
it's tiling for kde and it works REALLY well.

I find myself getting annoyed with having to set each window Up how I like it. So far this is a set up I enjoy when working on projects. How can I get Ubuntu to save this 'set up' so I can quickly open these apps in this view?
Take a look at a tiling window solution. I'm currently using bismuthwith gives similar arrangement to what you're looking for and helps massively with productivity when working on an ultrawide

What is a good windows tiling manager for beginners?
As a good halfway house you could do worse than KDE with Bismuth (https://github.com/Bismuth-Forge/bismuth), which is an add-in that will give you great tiling capability, fully controllable via the keyboard. Couple this with KDE native virtual desktops and you have a pretty decent tiling window manager.

Why KDE Plasma was chosen as the default desktop environment for Asahi Linux
Plasma 5.27 added in some native tiling support. There are also some kwin scripts available to add tiling to it.

I am a little concerned about Tiling on KDE 6
Not-good stuff: This tiling is very incomplete. It doesn't allow you to snap everything to your tiles at once, it doesn't support different tiles per virtual screen/workspace and, perhaps more importantly, with that addition and Plasma 6 on the way, compatibility with Bismuth and similar addons is getting lost.

Trying to make a case for tiling WM.
Since you are already using KDE, you can very easily try how much you like tiling: just install bismuth: https://github.com/Bismuth-Forge/bismuth It's a plasma add-on that enables tiling in KDE. If you don't like tiling, just disable the plugin again and uninstall bismuth.

How to Customize the Floating Panel
I paired this with the tile-gaps script to make the floating gap stay floating. In the script's settings you can declare the pixel gap for windows to match the panel gap and check the side that the panel is on.

What are your favorite kwin scripts?
Also Window Gaps. Not particularly useful but just makes me more happy looking at my desktop.

Tops of maximized windows keep going below Latte Panes
It's called: Window Gaps

Latte Dock is not reserving space after upgrading to wayland.
You can use this kwin script as a workaround https://store.kde.org/p/1619642 However, it might cause buggy window alignment

KDE Snap Assist 1.1 now supports quarter and triple tiling! You can switch layouts using the Tab key or button in the corner
See the discussion on https://github.com/nclarius/tile-gaps/issues/16.
- Is it possible to draw a thin border (~4 pixles) around windows?
-
Is there a way you can change the gaps on the floating panel?
I wish I was knowledgeable enough to work it out properly. I would like to be able to make it not expand the panel when I maximise a window. I use Window gaps It would look better if the panel stayed floating
