Is there a good tutorial for writing an X11 Tiling Window manager in Rust?
I've looked at these: - DWM: A popular, compact WM written in C - LeftWM: A popular, configurable WM written in Rust - GabelstaplerWM: An obscure, compact WM written in Rust - XCB DWM: An abandoned rewrite of DWM using XCB

Different window managers (e.g. tiling) on Windows?
In particular, I think that "ultrawide-vertical-stack" (based on "CenterMain" from LeftWM) is quite close to what you are looking for. Give it a try with komorebic change-layout ultrawide-vertical-stack!
Right now there are only a fixed number of layouts because there is a bunch of stuff that needs to be implemented for navigating in different layouts, but in general it should not be too difficult to port any of the layouts used by LeftWM, especially now that there is the optional to make some layouts navigable via cycling only. Please do open an issue for more ultrawide-friendly layouts as I imagine that this is an issue that is stopping other ultrawide users from making the jump to using a TWM like komorebi.

Once again I'm happy to answer any questions, and I want to give a special thanks to nog, leftwm and umberwm, whose work this project borrows from and builds upon.

"Best" programming setup?
might as well use amp (vim in rust), leftwm (wm in rust), and nushell (shell in rust), just because
