With rise of wayland, are simpler window managers dying?
Take a look to Vivarium It is more recent it worked decently and it is remakably easy to config.
-
I am looking for a wayland based tiling window manager which is close to dwm/xmonad, which one would you recommend?
I wrote Vivarium specifically to behave like my old xmonad setup, although it isn't at all like xmonad internally. It's configurable in C.

XMonad – The Automated Tiling WM
Since various people are asking about xmonad-like tiling in wayland:
I wrote Vivarium[0] specifically to be a wayland compositor that behaves exactly like my (fairly simple) xmonad config, but it's a relatively new/unstable compositor and nothing like xmonad internally.
River[1] has a fantastic tiling model via user-provided executables, which makes it very flexible and probably a good fit for many people wanting something xmonad-like.
Waymonad[2] exists as a direct xmonad-like compositor, but I think development has been basically stalled for a long time. Sometimes there's discussion about reviving it though.

Recommended Compositors
Vivarium has xwayland as an option, enabled by default.

xorg sucks, use swc
https://github.com/inclement/vivarium.git and https://github.com/djpohly/dwl.git are also great projects in the same vein.

Widgets: which are the alternatives?
I'm trying to get the most out of my OS (Arch with X11 and Awesomewm), but I'm stuck with the widgets. I would like to create/use some utilities like an interactive calendar, small TODO list, dropdown menu, etc. but using the awesomewm widgets is too difficult and limiting. I found eww but it seems as difficult as the former widgets.

eww fails to compile
Reported and closed upstream: https://github.com/elkowar/eww/issues/712

How do I autostart Eww bar inside the hyprland.conf file?
The reason, why eww would not start, is because i compiled it myself with rustup according to the official documentation (https://elkowar.github.io/eww/) and not by the AUR. After installing it with the AUR it workes in Hyprland. So in conclustion: If you wanna use Eww on Hyprland, use the AUR method and not the method on the Docs!

Sway/workspace by Eww
Are you as mystified as me? I'll save you the google search: eww is Elkowars Wacky Widgets a standalone widget system made in Rust that allows you to implement your own, custom widgets in any window manager.
-
Eww is hard :(
Well actually there is https://elkowar.github.io/eww. I used it to make my config and also looked at other configs.
-
changing profiles
I'm guessing one could use [eww](https://elkowar.github.io/eww/) to create buttons/widgets. And the buttons could dispatch commands to any of the wallpaper/theme changing applications to actually execute the change.
-
Get workspaces information (to integrate with Eww)?
I'd like to get informations from xmonad on all the currently active workspaces and which one is the current workspace. Possibly I'd like to format that information into a JSON object for better integration with Eww, which I'm using as a status bar.
-
How to get the groups in use via the Command-API
Hi all, I'm trying to configure a bar with eww (https://github.com/elkowar/eww) and I' stuck getting the workspace widget to work.
-
calendar
No, as far as I know. I personally use eww and toggle a calendar when clicking on a time widget. I'm using the config in this repo
- Does anyone know how to build this with EWW?This is an awesome wm rice, actually,but I can't figure out how to make it.Also,I want to build it with EWW in hyprland. Source:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-dkpcEeKk0E&t=3
