XMonad – The Automated Tiling WM
i3 has manual tiling by choice and it isn't necessary to port automatic tiling to i3 itself. You can make a service that utilizes i3's IPC that does that. And of course people have done so[1][2].

The original concept comes from https://github.com/olemartinorg/i3-alternating-layout. I only wrote a script capable of working on both i3 and sway.

Is there any bar for Sway similar to the panels of KDE / Xfce / Gnome2 / Windows ? I wish to always see on my screen which windows I have open, shown and focused.
It's possible I most bars/panels, I reckon. The screenshot comes from nwg-panel.
