  • Rectangle

    Move and resize windows on macOS with keyboard shortcuts and snap areas

    This sounds great. I am moving from Mac OS where I got used to using Rectangle to manage windows efficiently via the keyboard. I was a tad surprised when I got to linux and learned that such functionality was available only if you use specific environments and they all require a lot of configuration to become even workable. For some reason I had assumed it would be omni present. I think I somewhat understand why it's not now that I see in at least a superficial way how much variety there is and that it would be difficult for anything to just magically work.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • bspwm-dotfiles

    Discontinued bspwm dotfiles with a bspwm newbie friendly tutorial (by siduck)

    In particular, I can give a solid recommendation to bspwm. A user named siduck has a great setup tutorial that will get you used to tiling WMs in no time. Best of luck!

  • xpytile

    Automatic / dynamic window tiling for XFCE

    If you like, take a look at xpytile ( https://github.com/jaywilkas/xpytile/ ) This pseudo tiling window manager is (in practise) for XFCE only, written in Python.

  • Update available: https://gitlab.com/corthbandt/shinglify-bin/-/tree/latest

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
