    Discontinued A tiling window manager for Windows 10 based on binary space partitioning

  • I wrote my very first window manager for Windows 10 in Rust earlier this here, I built it from the ground up using the new windows-rs crate. It was my first time developing anything for Windows and I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of the MS documentation ecosystem, and I also had a lot of great example code to learn from thanks to other projects like nog.

  • InfluxDB
