EXWM crashes if I press most of the XF86* keys
By default, the XF86 keys are not bound to anything unless you use desktop-environment. The example configuration of EXWM does not set anything for those keys. By the way, (exwm-config-default) is obsolete, but that should not be the cause of the issue. Have you bound anything to the keys ? Do you use a hotkey deamon next to emacs ?

An implementation of simple, intuitive tabs in Emacs.
Out of curiosity, did you try centaur-tabs before making your own mode? It might have gotten you reasonably close to what you were after. Though I know from personal experience, that “close” might as well be light years sometimes… lol

Absolute minimum modeline
Centaur tabs can signal unsaved buffers and the buffer's major mode (as an icon). You can hide the modeline completely if that's all you need.

Compiling and running C/C++ files without makefiles
Honestly there's not much thinking behind my tabs usage. I use centaur tabs which groups relevant tabs together in a way I quite like.
