Ps. I don't at all endorse using tiny-std, I think it's correct but I wouldn't be surprised if some nasty bugs are hiding somewhere in there. Although I do use it for my WM pgwm which can now be build on stable, assuming you're running Linux with io-uring, a wrote a bit about that change here but didn't post about it then. The main benefit of tiny-std being tiny binaries that link statically.

If you want to check out the WM, that can be found here. If you want to check out tiny-std, that's here. As previously mentioned, there's a write-up on all of that here.
I wrote an x11 tiling window manager inspired by DWM that I've been using for a few months now. If you're using x11 and want to try out a new tiling window manager I'd love your feedback!

So if firefox is an application you can find you can query the WM_CLASS property, like this. Other applications might not set that and you'd have to use some other property or information to deduce that this given window(which is just a u32) is actually applicationA. A tip is to start the application, use xprop and see what properties it sets. call_wrapper.rs contains a lot of code about querying different properties. The x11rb example simple_window.rs has a few examples of the other side of that showing how an application can set its on properties.
