  1. openbox

  3. compton

    A compositor for X11.

    Picom is a lightweight standalone compositor created for the X Window System. It is a fork of Compton (which is a fork of xcompmgr-dana, which is also a fork of xcompmgr) and it is suitable for use with window managers like Openbox that do not provide compositing effects on their own. If you want to learn more about its history, then you should visit this page or, if you are interested in knowing a bit more about it, you can check its page on the Arch wiki.

  4. picom

    A lightweight compositor for X11 with animation support

    Picom is a lightweight standalone compositor created for the X Window System. It is a fork of Compton (which is a fork of xcompmgr-dana, which is also a fork of xcompmgr) and it is suitable for use with window managers like Openbox that do not provide compositing effects on their own. If you want to learn more about its history, then you should visit this page or, if you are interested in knowing a bit more about it, you can check its page on the Arch wiki.

  5. tint2

    At its Arch wiki article you can find that tint2 is described as a simple, unobtrusive and light panel for Xorg. It can be configured to include a system tray, a task list, a battery monitor and more. Its look is configurable and it only has few dependencies, making it ideal for window managers like Openbox that don’t come with panels to show action icons and/or tasks. It is open source as well and you can find its source code at its GitLab repo.

  6. jgmenu

    An X11 menu

    On the other hand, as you can read at its GitHub repo, jgmenu is a simple, independent and contemporary-looking X11 menu, designed for scripting, ricing and tweaking. It is hackable, has a simple code base and does not depend on any toolkits such as GTK and Qt, but uses cairo and pango to render the menu. It can optionally use some appearance settings from XSettings, tint2 and GTK; and it has UTF-8 search support.
