Looking for tool to give overview of all workspaces
Was looking for a while but directly after posting I found a tool that might be what I'm after: https://github.com/morrolinux/i3expo-ng
- Does anyone have a way to show empty workspaces in i3wm polybar?

i3 equivalent (if possible) to KDE's "Present Windows" feature. Displays all windows (all workspaces) and you can click the one you like. If you type while in this mode, it filters the windows with matching names, making them easier to find (nice to have).
