xpytile VS dwm-xfce

It might be easier to use something like xpytile within XFCE to handle the keyboard handling. Read about it here: https://github.com/jaywilkas/xpytile

like shinglify or xpytile.

You can request the feature at xfce's gitlab, or write your own script to handle windows however you want. Here are some pre-existing scripts you can try or use for inspiration: x-tile, xpytile.

Without too much disruption to your install, you could try xpytile https://github.com/jaywilkas/xpytile/ within your current DE for a few weeks to see if it works, sort of as a transition if you decide to move forward.

You may also want to try xpytile https://github.com/jaywilkas/xpytile/ or zentile https://github.com/blrsn/zentile

As an alternative tiling helper for XFCE I would suggest xpytile.

Perhaps not the most straightforward solution, but you could use a tiling helper script which is able to 'tile' windows maximized per default. For example xpytile https://github.com/jaywilkas/xpytile/ It's pretty OK. Only little problem is with xfce4-terminal which is tiled a few pixels too small, but that seems to be a problem of the terminal app.

If you want to have some tiling support but don't want to give up the comfort of a DE, like XFCE, you could try a tiling helper like xpytile.

Do anyone know how to use dwm in xfce session? I only want the dwm's keybinding and windows management, but I also want to replace the dwm's bar with xfce panel, and hope that there's a way to show all of the workspaces in xfce panel.I notice that this repo exist, but it does seem like it is using xinitrc to start the xfce session but not from lightdm, I conjecture that maybe starting from lightdm is better for Zoom Meeting (not sure why my pure dwm setup on another laptop will have gray box when sharing screen in Zoom meeting).
