Best window manager for Arch with
Since this is your first foray into this world I’d suggest you look into nwg-shell. It’s a sway (and hyprland) based WM that brings some of the niceties of a desktop over to this WM world for you. It comes complete with a gui for setting all the configs, and 4 desktop options, plus the ability to change it to your hearts content. There’s a dock, an app drawer, wallpaper app, and tons of things to tinker with. It’s written in Go and Python and you can change pretty much anything however you want.

tofi - a tiny rofi / dmenu for Sway
Not heard of that before, looks like similar points as for bemenu apply (tofi is faster and more themeable, but less polished overall). Tofi also doesn't support icons - not sure if it will to be honest, given the above comment that j4-dmenu-desktop can do the desktop file searching.
- kitty instead of xterm, can no longer spawn terminal based applications with dmenu or associated bindings
