- I'm a tiling WM user but the concept of the scrolling window managers were new to me. This idea might be experimental but using it was fun. If you want to try it, CardBoard is a good start. I had fun using it for a couple of days and thought it's good to share it with you too.

Cardboard; a scrollable tiling window manager
Er, on my laptop? It might be more precise to say that I can't find any way to make it use anything else; manpages give me nothing, grepping for "layout" in the source tree gives me nothing (relevant; window layouts show up), and there's an open issue (https://gitlab.com/cardboardwm/cardboard/-/issues/30) asking for it, all of which makes me conclude that it doesn't appear to support doing anything but QWERTY. That said, I said "AFAICT" for a reason; if you can prove me wrong I'll be quite grateful (because, seriously, I would like to use this thing).

Introducing River, a Dynamic Tiling Wayland Compositor
Would it be possible to use the 'layout generator' functionality to create scrolling workspaces in the style of PaperWM or cardboard? Where rather than tiling the traditional way into the space available on the monitor, windows are tiled next to each other in columns on an essentially infinitely wide workspace and scrolled to bring the focused window onto the monitor.

Scud - managing windows by tiling and sliding
PaperWM is the original inspiration, but then I acted on the suggestion of one of the developers of cardboard and made a plugin for Wayfire.
