Been doing this for about a decade, it works nicely. Def recommend stows `--no-folding` flag (which prevents it from symlinking directories, just files)

Double Borders Usability
Hi, I finally got around to setting up double borders after ≈1.5 years on bspwm today but I’d like input on usability from anyöne here who’s done the same. I started by using this script but ran into many issues so modified this one instead as it’s newer.

How to script nodes/subnodes alignment/sizing/positioning via shell-script?
bspc just sends null sep'd strings to bspwm via a socket - which you can reimplement how you'd like if needed. you can potentially make bindings for any language if you had reason to. or just exec bspc. do check out babashka - there is one lispy hacker who comes around here once in a while and has shared some cool bspwm stuff using it.
