- How can I make my i3bar like this?
-
Configuration of i3wm!!
If you want icons and clickable items on the bar you need to use something like https://github.com/greshake/i3status-rust
-
i3blocks - cannot get custom block to work at all
https://github.com/greshake/i3status-rust/tree/master/examples is about twice as good. The way i3blocks handles clicks is quite frankly kind of crap.

Unable to set icons in i3status-rust - unknown field 'icons'
I assume you have installed latest stable version which is 0.22. The relavant config is https://github.com/greshake/i3status-rust/blob/v0.22.0/examples/config.toml

Upload and download speed for status bar
What's the version of i3-status you are using. As per their README, https://github.com/greshake/i3status-rust , there are two versions 0.22 and 0.3. Make sure you are using compatible versions according to your config.

I wrote an x11 tiling window manager inspired by DWM that I've been using for a few months now. If you're using x11 and want to try out a new tiling window manager I'd love your feedback!
Yeah, much better than the default i3status, it is well documented, you can check its screenshots and documents for more into. https://github.com/greshake/i3status-rust/blob/master/doc/themes.md

I really love Colemak, but I sadly rolled back to QWERTY because...
Setup is a Clevo laptop with an eGPU and 3 external monitors, running i3wm with i3status-rust. Keyboard is an Ergodone (chinese knockoff of ZSA's Ergodox EZ) with MX Browns and caps are a white and green set from AliExpress, that was basically the only DSA blank set for this keyboard I could find that would also have homing notches.

I reinvented another wheel, linux threads.
Ps. I don't at all endorse using tiny-std, I think it's correct but I wouldn't be surprised if some nasty bugs are hiding somewhere in there. Although I do use it for my WM pgwm which can now be build on stable, assuming you're running Linux with io-uring, a wrote a bit about that change here but didn't post about it then. The main benefit of tiny-std being tiny binaries that link statically.
-
Pgwm 0.3 a pure rust `no_std` no libc window manager.
If you want to check out the WM, that can be found here. If you want to check out tiny-std, that's here. As previously mentioned, there's a write-up on all of that here.

So if firefox is an application you can find you can query the WM_CLASS property, like this. Other applications might not set that and you'd have to use some other property or information to deduce that this given window(which is just a u32) is actually applicationA. A tip is to start the application, use xprop and see what properties it sets. call_wrapper.rs contains a lot of code about querying different properties. The x11rb example simple_window.rs has a few examples of the other side of that showing how an application can set its on properties.
