  • dwm-flexipatch

    A dwm build with preprocessor directives to decide which patches to include during build time

  • I like and use dwm but it was becoming an overkill for me to mix and match patches, plus updating of dwm from git, I started using dwm-flexipatch from bakkeby, which I suggest you to try. He's incorporated many patches - all the ones I needed where there, which can be enabled/disabled very easily. A drawback is the config.h file: It's a bit intimidating at first, because it includes the possible options of all patches, enabled or not.

    Luke's build of dwm

  • I'm now trying out Luke Smith's dwm built on Arch. His build of dwm already utilize several patches and seems to be heavily customized. I tried to add the extrabar patch to it, but quickly noticed this is much more difficult than I thought:

  • WorkOS
