Using nwg-wrapper for a HUD of help for sway modes
As a geriatric user of sway, I don't always remember the keystrokes in the more esoteric corners of my configuration. I find that my script sway-menu helps with the bulk of the uncommon key bindings. But when I drop into a 'mode' (eg "move" mode) I don't always remember all the clever things I programed into it.

What do I need to install on the Sway spin?
Another source for ideas is to read through the configs and scripts written by others. I offer my own here - there are many others around.

Digital overlay clock?
Here's a script that uses nwg-wrapper to display a countdown - it would be easy to modify it to display a digital clock.

Sway productivity tips
Imma gonna browse through your stuff to see if there's a scratch to a hitherto unnoticed itch that I can snarf. You might like to do the same with my dotfiles - particularly bin/sway-\, *.config/sway** and .config/waybar.

Anyone know how to move container to the next *empty* workspace?
You might be able to modify my sway-next-empty-workspace script for that. Maybe see if changing swaymsg to i3-msg does the job.

Password manager solution in Wayland?
I use myclipman to wrap clipman with wayland/swaywm to prevent passwords being cached.

Counting down before gtklock or suspend
The countdown into gtklock is created by my script sway-count which uses nwg-wrapper.

Is there a good Sway preconf or starter pack?
I use openSUSE, and we have https://github.com/openSUSE/openSUSEway, but I would expect every larger Linux distribution to have something similar.

Is it Possible to Use Gnome Settings in Sway?
I'd like to be able to do something similiar. Unfortunately, I don't have a config ready to share, but I've started with openSUSE's sway config https://github.com/openSUSE/openSUSEway The only thing I've changed that would affect anything is this fix https://github.com/swaywm/sway/wiki#gtk-applications-take-20-seconds-to-start because some gnome apps wouldn't start.
