How to have 'gaps' on dwmbar
The "applets" could be added with the systray patch if you want something graphical or with external utilities like trayer or stalonetray. It can also be done using dsblocks/dwmblocks for the status which support clickability but may need more tinkering if you want to show menus.

Recommend a tiling windows manager
Well, here's my build of dwm that I've used daily for years, https://github.com/majamin/dwm . Change config.def.h to your liking. Then, when you are more comfortable, patch your own build. Quite rewarding.
