Developing a WM
In 2021 you might rather write a wayland compositor instead. Apparently there are even bindings to wlroots, a library for developing such compositors.

If GNOME is so criticized for heading in a wrong direction, why do Linux vendors and main distributions (with large user base) still pick it as the default desktop for their users?

Developing a WM
There's also Ulubis and Paulownia. The latter is not really usable yet from what I understand, but I've not had much luck with Ulubis either.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing cl-wlroots and ulubis you can also consider the following projects:
wm - my common lisp window manager
nyxt - Nyxt - the hacker's browser.
cinnamon - A Linux desktop featuring a traditional layout, built from modern technology and introducing brand new innovative features.
trial - A fully-fledged Common Lisp game engine
termite - Termite is obsoleted by Alacritty. Termite was a keyboard-centric VTE-based terminal, aimed at use within a window manager with tiling and/or tabbing support.
