Major improvement in wrist fatigue?
I switched to Vim a little above a year ago. It is a keyboard-driven text editor. You can't open it and just start typing like notepad, you open it then you have to press a command to start typing—i or a are the most simple. When you are done typing, you press escape to leave insert ("text-editing") mode and go back into visual ("navigation") mode. You then write changes and close the editor with ZZ. Now, a few months before I started using my new keyboard, I started using a tiling Window Manager—dwm—which allowed me to do most of my window management and navigation with the keyboard alone.

Using Arch Linux
Now I had to get a “GUI” up and running. I had used KDE and GNOME on my old laptop before but I wanted to try something called a tiling window manager. If you didn’t know, tiling window managers basically automatically resize windows based on available space, so instead of having a bunch of windows overlapping each other like macOS or Windows, all of them are on the screen and visible to the user. For this, I was going to use a tiling window manager called dwm .

Moving between workspaces
I'm coming from https://dwm.suckless.org/ so I am very confused by the MacOS window manager. I know I can Control+{1..9} to move between Desktop workspaces, but that stops working if I full screen an Application? So how do people quickly move between a terminal and a certain browser profile? Bonus: How do remove that slow transition animation?

[OC] Dynamic tiling (master-stack) proof of concept script for sway
To see properly implemented dynamic master-stack tiling, see the x window manager dwm or the wayland compositor river.

Wayland or X11 programming for beginners ?
You can also check out DWM (X11) written in 2000 SLOC, so should be easy to understand.

A window manager that doesn't require you to edit the source code for basic customization? Heresy! (googles how to open window in dwm)
People should be scared of editing source code. That keeps Noobs and people with jobs away

Update. If installed arch successfully with the German version of arch wiki.

What's the use of having multiple Desktops? Have never used it myself..wanted to know what people use it for..
I work mostly with full screen windows, or Monocle mode as dwm and the like call it. The trackpad makes it very easy to swipe between spaces and I keep things in a defined order so no matter what app I'm currently using I can quickly get to any other app.

Easy to config tiling wm
If you can get past some minor wayland related annoyances, river is pretty easy imo, you can write a config in whatever format you want, it just needs to be an executable file, the most common type is a shell script. The actual configuration happens by calling the riverctl program from the file, which from what I've heard is a similar method compared to bspwm.

Questions about availability of specific functionalities in swaywm (and wayland at all)
Coming from awesome you may find river more to your liking than sway.

Chromium / Electron on Wayland causes crash of the whole OS
River crashed everytime I closed Chromium. The developer fixed it in 5 minutes :)

I may have taken plugins too far...
I've written a plugin that implements the river-layout-v3 wayland protocol in Hyprland. This means you can run something like rivertile, river-luatile, rivercarro or kile as a layout provider.

Master and Stack setup
Author here. And yeah, as of 0.6.0 it supports master stack - I just called it stack main. I was in fact inspired by river: https://github.com/riverwm/river. River is really promising but is still in very early development. Sway on the other hand has been around for a long time and I, for now, prefer that stability.

Has anyone managed to get Hyprland working on void?
In my very specific case, I'd probably start by taking a look at how animations were previously implemented in river, and then I'd pay careful attention to that transform matrix at the end. I'm not super crazy about the implementation using timers to drive it (versus interpolating where the transform should be across a deadline), but I guess they were going for smoothness.
