Top 18 Kwin Open-Source Projects

  • bismuth

    KDE Plasma add-on, that tiles your windows automatically and lets you manage them via keyboard, similarly to i3, Sway or dwm.

    • Project mention: Cosmic Desktop: Hammering Out New Cosmic Features | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-18

    What level are you interested in scripting? In KDE Plasma you can interact with the desktop UI via JS: https://develop.kde.org/docs/plasma/scripting/

    And then for something more sophisticated there are extensions like https://github.com/Bismuth-Forge/bismuth.

    It does all feel a little disorganized/wild-west-y compared to say, a .vimrc with a list of plugins and bindings, which is something that makes a system like Nix (or a fully containerized DE of some kind) appealing

  • krohnkite

    A dynamic tiling extension for KWin

    • Project mention: kde tilling features needs some attention | /r/kde | 2023-05-24

    That's exactly what happens. Bismuth was a fork of Krohnkite. If someone needs Bismuth enough, they will pick it up, fork it or whatever.

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.

  • Grid-Tiling-Kwin

    A kwin script that automatically tiles windows

    • Project mention: kde tilling features needs some attention | /r/kde | 2023-05-24

    KWin used to have no tiling capabilities at all and people came up with lots of add-on scripts like kwin-tiling, Grid-Tiling-KWin, Krohnkite, Bismuth and so on. This gave users tiling, but it was always a bit hackish, getting KWin to do something it wasn't designed to do.

  • polonium

    Autotile manager for Plasma 6

    • Project mention: Hyprland Crash Course | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-23

    This is a fork of bismuth that works with plasma 6. Haven't tried it, but it is supposedly quite nice
